i went to change my spark plugs today and upon taking my leads out i noticed about 1 cm of oil in the spark plug well of all 4 spark plugs, my car has been running absolutely fine so i was surprised to see what i saw, anyway i cleaned as much of the oil away as possible before changing the plugs, put the leads etc back in place and the car is running great, but what is causing so much oil to leak into the chamber? i had my rocker cover gasket replaced 11 months ago and i am not smelling burning oil, any ideas???
