    Just changed plugs at 44K, noticed a little oil on 4 out of 6 plugs. Normal? Thanks.

    that could also be the anti-seize that is applied and needs to be re-applied to the new set.

    had this same issue at 33k, changed plugs and took the truck to the dealer to make sure that the valve cover and spark plug tube seals weren't leaking. They said it was normal. Im not convinced...
