Hey guys and gals. My 00' Neon is misfiring again. I had this same problem when i bought the car. I have already removed the valve cover to remove the tube, put loctite, and put the tube back in place with a 2x4 and a hammer. I noticed the oil is coming from the spark plug gasket. Did i hammer the tube in too deep? Any help will greatly be appreciated. Thanks.

 

nah you didn't the seals work off friction, in time they just get old and wear out... simple fix and well worth the time I've done it on mine a few of my kiddo's friends neons... here's the link and pics to help ya

Thanks Tejas. Great write up. I think the problem is the PCV valve. I guess the previous owner broke it and still put it in crooked. I will start with replacing the PVC and go from there.
