so how do these look do they need to be chande and the second one i took out was dowsed in oil what does this mean???

 

depending on how oil soaked it was if it was alot you could have a bad piston ring but theydon't look that soaked i just did my strat and it had more oil than that but my mom drives it so she is in charge and i just found out she hasent replaced them in over 100,000 miles[X(]no wounder it was slugishman the strat is roaring

 

yeah but i wiped these off before picture

i think ill stick with my decision to go withthe NGK plugs

are the autolite double platinums performance plugs??

 

my strat has an engine preformancerebuild comingsoon so i'll find out if i have bad piston rings i think its at 250,000 miles right now and its still killing hondaschampions are better they do the same thing on a sohc your not really needing those yet imo and there cheaper

 

oh and oil on the spark plugs can also be spark plug seals thats more likely whats wrong so go and get some

 

change them with OEM Champions or the NGK's and the oil is most likly the spark plug tube seals and the valve cover gasket.
