Post help

I checked my spark plugs and noticed that cylinders 1,2, and 4 are wet with a fuel or oil mixture. it doesnt smell like fuel so im thinking its oil. also there seems to be some carbon deposits in the mixture. but when i checked the 3rd cylinder i noticed that its dry and not wet at all. anyway i changed spark plugs about 2 weeks ago and i checked the new ones today and noticed the same problem. i was just wondering if anyone knows whats wrong.

Its only a spark plug tube seal, unless they are really filled with oil I wouldn't worry about it. If you want to fix the issue you just get a head gasket set, they are usually included with them.
