oil on spark plugs?

[lounydvd]

Hi, Just changed the plugs this spring and noticed that most of the plugs were black. 50% of them were dry and black and the other 50% had oil on them.<br /><br />Question: What are normal plugs suppose to look like?<br />2. What's it mean when there is oil on them?<br /><br />Keep in mind, that this is the first change of plugs after the winterize.<br /><br />Thanks,<br />Lou

Re: oil on spark plugs?

Well, light brown but you can't read a plug that's been winterized. Oil on the plug without winterizing would mean oil leaking by the valve seals or the rings. Change your plugs and have a look after a couple days running.
