Further developoments -- 94 S4 (was Assistance Needed 94 S4)

Oil in the spark plugs is generally as simple as the valve cover. You will
see when you remove it, there are two parts to it. One goes around the
outside edge, as on most coventional engines. Then, on most DOHC engines
there are circular seals joined together that seal around the spark plug
holes. Oil in the holes can cause coil pack failure BTST plenty of times.
