93' DX w/ oil on plugs
I just got done repainting my 93' DX but i accidentally let it sit for a while without starting it because the gas went bad and i figured that if i was going to have to go through the trouble of restarting it i may as well wait till everything was done. SO...4 months later i go to check the plugs and spray some starting fluid, i noticed oil ALL OVER the plugs. Is this normal from it just sitting for a while and oil seeping in from time? or is there something wrong?
Someone told me it was normal it's just that since it sat so long it didnt burn off a little at a time like it usually would. Instead it just pooled up a little at a time.
Thanks!

It's the seals on the spark plug holes. I know on the 7th gen, each spark plug hole has it's own seal, on some other cars, they're all connected to the valve cover gasket. Just replace the seals and you'll be fine.
