California Posts: 5 | Rough engine idle or misfire. Hey all. I have an emergency. My ti is idleing ruff or is misfireing. I thought the problem might be a fouled sparkplug or a loose coil connection. Well when I went to change the sparkplug on the cylinder closest to the grill and when i pulled the sparkplug wire out there was oil in the shaft. I was shocked because I've never seen that before. So I moved to the second cylinder and the same thing except less oil. The last two sparkplug wire shafts were normal. So I cleaned out the shafts and replaced the plugs. I ran the car and checked for any oil leaking but there was none. So now I'm really confused and think there might be a crack in the head or a busted seal. Also when I checked the sparkplugs there was quite a bit of carbon on them. So now I dont know what to do besides taking it to a shop and paying a boat load of money. If anyone can help with any of this long thread, I would appreciate it very much.
