white-gt Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 Hi guys, i seem to have an issue started where one cylinder ht lead is comming off the spark plug, i can then push it back on and it could literally pop off and land at the manifold still sparking.. am i right in saying it could be the spark plug not all the way down or is it a case of the seals on the cam cover..? never had this issue before so im not too sure..

mikey4410 Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 surely the only way that can happen is because of pressure coming from spark plug hole. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
white-gt Posted April 11, 2014 Author Share Posted April 11, 2014 yeh thats what im thinking also.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
white-gt Posted April 11, 2014 Author Share Posted April 11, 2014 so that would be the 4 rubber rings the spark plug tube seals or something?http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Toyota-Starlet-GT-Turbo-Glanza-V-Rocker-Cover-Cam-Cover-Gasket-Set-OE-Quality-/131004764336?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item1e807e10b0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sefton-EP91 Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 Just check the sprak plug is tight mate and also might be worth changing the spark plug seals aswell Quote Link to post Share on other sites
white-gt Posted April 11, 2014 Author Share Posted April 11, 2014 i'll check its tight when i get home, might try swap the plugs around.. ive ordered that kit ive posted above anyway so i'll let you know how i get on! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
