[s-cars] valve cover

[Martin Baggenstos]

Hello everyone,

   I just recently took off my valve cover gasket in order to change it
because it was beginning to leak and also that I was noticing some severe
misfiring of a cylinder. To my suprise there was also a lot of oil down the
4th spark plug well and other other wells also with the spark plug, plug
boot, and coil essential melted in number 4. I would appreciate any advice
on how the clean out the spark plug wells that have oil in them before I
replace the spark plugs and gasket. Also on the gasket, is anyone also
adding a sealant with the OEM gasket to it to prevent leaks? Thanks.

Martin
