Ok, I got this mess of an '92 MTX SHO, with 144K+ from a little ol' lady lol.(true story)
The idle sometimes drops below 500rpm(once in a while it stalls)and the oil light comes on.
I checked the easy spark plugs, and guess what? yep, oil in the sleeves.
The middle one(cyl) had the most.
Plugs have been in for 50K+.
The car ran decent, except for an intermittant rpm drop.
I have to sell the car, once it is good to go.
What am I looking at for parts? gaskets and seals, plugs and now wires(due to pulling the boot off the connector on #1)
I have a mechanic pal to help me if necessary.
What would you replace?
I looked through many threads, and searched.
I have had the car a couple of months, and I have to say it is nearly as much fun to drive, as my Trilogized Marauder!
Oh Yeah, thanks for all the info here!
I thought, when I saw the oil in the spark plug holes, this was terminal.
