Oil on my spark plugs?
I changed my sparkplugs out the other day with some Bosch Platinum ones and I noticed on my last cylinder that there was oil all over it. I figured it must be the o-ring or something of that nature and my friend told me that it wouldn't *&%$ the truck up too much. Wondering if anyone else has had a similar problem and what they did with it.

I don't know much about the V-6, but I know that on the 4.6 if the valve cover gasket leaks, the oil runs down onto the spark plugs. I dunno. I would check that out first.
