actually is the oil on the tip of the plug or only on the tread ? If it is on the tread it means you need to replace the gasket, if you have oil on the tip then it's time to rebuild. The head gasket package runs about 40 @ NAPA, and cheaper at the local auto part storez. What cylinder do u have problems with ? Let me guess #2.

it is the second from the pulleys not from the transmission. Yes i had the problem, and i still have it. i did not have the toime to replace the gaskets on it yet. If you still have oem wires on it you should see #2 on it.
