MRTOOTH Posted November 22, 2004 Share #1 Posted November 22, 2004 Hey Guys,I have a mostly stock 75' 280Z. Last year I changed my plugs and put in splitfire plugs. Last month i took them out to see how the condition was and i noticed that they were a little fouled. I sandblasted them and put them back in, the car was still running fine. Now a month later the car is idling a little rough, so I decided to check the plugs, when I took them out they were covered in oil. I have not idea what's going on, can anyone help?

A compression test can help you determine which is the source of the oil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
