8g: Replacing spark plug oil seals
Well for the past couple of days, i've had some serious leaking in my sparkplug wells... and i did posts the problem for possible answers.. and the only possible explanation would be the oil seals.. well here's a quick tutorial.. it was quite simple..
spark plug oil seals.. $14.00 from the dealer.. got it for $9.50 by hookups got me all 4 btw.

first take apart you spark plug assembly.. then detach your valve cover by slightly tapping on it with a rubber mallet or a hammer with the valve cover covered with a towel or cushion..
taking it apart with either a channel lock wrench or a flat head screw driver.. should just snap right off..

place the new seal on top of the sp wells and tap slightly to flush it in even.

then place you valve cover back on.. might be lifted or might have a little gap. but that's ok due to the new seals.. if you have the extra cash, you might want to get new gasket lining. tighten it up evenly then check for leaks.. since i didn't replace my gasket, i'm closley watching out for leaks.. hopefully, i won't get any.. hope this help..
