    Sup peeps,

    Changing plugs today. Removed 6th and there was a lot of gunk and oil. What's wrong and how do I fix it? Thanks!

    Spark plug tube seals are leaking. On the 1GR-FE it's part of the valve cover gasket.

    The plug looks like its burning cleanly. The oil is likely coming down from the valve cover. Probably need a new gasket. In any event you need to clean the area thoroughly and then inspect it to see where the oil s coming from.
