Replace valve cover gasket and spark plug wires. The gasket comes in set together with the four rubber gaskets that goes around the spark plug holes, you have to replace the spark plug wires too it it was soaked in oil already causing bad idle during start up.

1. Worn or broken rings on that cylinder
2. Valve guides or seals worn on that cylinder
3. To fix the rings you will have to remove the head and sump (Remove the motor from the car if you cannot remove the sump with it in the car)
4. Yes it will make your car run bad

Why does my 1997 honda accord have oil around the spark plugs?

You have to replace the Valve cover gasket. Inside the spark plug hole, midway down is a gasket, every spark plug hole has them, you cant see it because its, well a gasket pressed against two very tight suface every spark plug hole, When these leak they fil up the sprkplug cavity, as you know. Go to a parts store, spend $30 dollars on a VALVE COVER GASKET SET. If reparied properly wiil be a 100% fix. If it's a 4 cylinder honda,, a monkey with downs syndrom could do this in five minutes. V6 accord, save yourself the time, grief and heart ache, and take it to a Professional.

My 92 Honda seems to sputter at low rpm. Like when you first take off from a dead stop. I had the oil around spark plug problem like the others posted on here. I changed the gaskets, but it is still...

Did you change what's call the "tube seals". It should have came with your valve cover gasket kit. 4 rings that push into the valve cover... If you did this and you still have oil, maybe your plug wires are still wet inside. Is the fuel filter very old?

I have a 92 Honda accord and i just changed the copper spark plugs,the plugs were soaked in oil. what the problem is?

Firstly, make sure the new spark plug that you bought is of the same heat range of the previuos plug or as stated in the car manual. there are 2 possibilities........1. oil drip thru intake or exhaust valve 'O" ring. 2. Piston ring already worn-out,

92 honda accord #3 cylinder no spark

Trade #2 & #3 plug wires. If you loose fire on #2, you have a bad wire if not, replace cap & rotor. The TCU is transmission controller. The ECU is not going to cause a single cylinder mis-fire.

Oil inside cylinders

oil inside the cylinders happens two ways...bad or worn piston rings or bad valve seals.  If you do a compression test this will tell you what the problem is.  when you remove your oil filler cap with the motor running is there a lot of pressure coming from inside the engine?  If there is, as I'm suspecting you are sadly suffering from a worn out engine.

Oil around spark plugs on 1992 honda accord

Yes the oil can cause the car to lose spark, the oil leak could be caused by the valve cover gaskets around the spark openings, but 9 times out of 10 it is the spark plug tube "O" rings. The top of the valve train comes off of the head, the "O" rings are between the two halves, that will fix the oil leak.

Honda accord 1992

It could be the ignition (spark plug) leads that connect to to the spark plugs, one could be shorting out or open circuit. Get them tested if possible, or just buy a new set, probly not too expensive. Could try swapping the leads with some known good ones (ie off another car that doesn't have the problem) before buying new ones, but if it's a '92 and never had them replaced it's probly good to do them anyway.
