The spark plug is one of the most important components in your car which provides the required spark to the internal combustion engine to start the car. However, if there is an oil leak in the spark plugs, then it creates a huge problem with the functionality of the engine and its performance. There are various causes which lead to a leak in the spark plug tubes. Go through the slide to know the reasons behind leaks in the spark plug tubes of your car.

1. What are the
in Car

2. The spark plug is the vital part
which is basically used to
generate the spark to ignite the
fuel and air mixture of your car
in the internal combustion
chamber.

3. When you run the car, the
oil also plays an important
role in lubricating the
components of the engine.

4. If your engine doesn't have
enough supply of oil, then it
will overheat from all the
friction by moving
components rubbing against
each other.

5. The oil leaking in the spark
plugs of your car creates a
huge problem with the
functionality of the engine
and its performance.

6. The below points define the
causes behind the leaks in
your car's spark plug tubes.

7. Damaged valve cover
gasket

8. The engine of your car has a
metal part know as a valve
cover gasket that is used to
keep the engine sealed to
prevent the oil leaks.

9. The heat generated from
the engine will damage
the valve cover gasket
that can eventually crack
and shatter and allow the
oil to leak through it.

10. If you catch the problem
initially, then repair the valve
cover gasket of your car.
Otherwise, the engine will
suffer permanent damage.

11. Failed o-ring seals

12. The O-ring seals are
presented under the spark
plug well and become failed
or worn out when the oil leak
through it.

13. If you don't repair it as soon
as possible, then it can
eventually affect the engine
of your car.

14. Thus, the oil-saturated
within the spark plugs, so
you need to replace the
spark plug at the same
time.

15. Worn piston

16. When the piston of your
car will get too much heat,
it will eventually crack.
Then it will cause knocking
and rattle bit sounds.

17. However, it will also cause
leakage in the spark plugs,
engine misfiring and
experience a weaker engine
performance.

18. If the piston rings of your
car are not replaced, then it
will ruin your engine
completely and all of its
components.

19. Old valve guide

20. For managing the intake of
air into the engine, all car
depends on the assistance
of valve guides.

21. Thus, the valve guides of
your car are secure and
perform the operation of the
engine, but wear out when
you are using your car
continuously.

22. You need to replace the
old valve guide of your
car to prevent the oil
from leaking into the
spark plugs.

23. Damaged piston
compression rings

24. Generally, the piston
compression rings are
placed on the top and
bottom of the piston of an
internal combustion
engine.

25. The main purpose of the
compression ring is to stop
the oil from entering the
combustion chamber by
removing the extra oil from
the cylinder walls.

26. When the compression
rings are damaged, they
unable to stop the oil
from flowing towards the
spark plugs.
