Oil in Spark Plug Cylinder #3
I am really hoping somebody can help me here---I'm really confused on the issue going on---
I have a 2000 Volvo S40 1.9L Turbo ---check engine light came on and the code was P0300, misfire code...I didn't get an exact read of where the misfire was becaise I don't believe it gave a P030X code
I replaced the spark plugs and everything was fine in the others but found that the 3rd cylinder was filled with oil above the plug...
I have read online every type of diagnosis but need to know exactly what could be causing all this to get oil in this cylinder...how can i fix this the best and easiest way?
I also heard that Volvo doesn't use a valve cover gasket but a sealant and i don't want to mess anything up getting in there (valve cover, cam shaft, etc)
PLEASE HELP ME WITH ANY INFO YOU MIGHT HAVE!!
Thanks so much !
