Sea-Doo 4 Tec Engine - Oil In The Spark Plug Hole: Replacing The Spark Plug Tubes

[@edmr2]

Thank you for the video. I was a bid scare when I saw the oil on the spark plug, then I remembered my Toyota Eng (same as seadoo problem)and I decided to search for a video and sure enough I found your video.

Thanks for the video. Just pulled out 3 oily spark plugs while winterizing. I did just change the oil, and may have overfilled by mistake, so I’m gonna start there. Either way, good to have this in case I need to do!

[@mainejason]

Good catch with the overfill - these engines are susceptible to that. Good luck no matter what, and thanks for watching!

Just did my first basic maintenance for my rxp and found oil in the spark tubes and was thinking that it could only be the cover gasket and then i thaught to but my problem in to google and what do you know i learned something new, that the tubes could eaven be the cause of the problem. :) Very nice vid !

Hi. how many Nm does the cover screw on?

[@mainejason]

That would be 9Nm for the cover bolts. For reference, here is where it is documented in the video: kzbin.infoUgkxtLQrBsBh0UOh7Zi_MBY21Cv5Yx02vmEd?si=gCc7GGAE6JgOcxkS Thanks for watching

I have a little oil in the bottom of my spark plug tubes, what could happen if I don't fix this?

[@mainejason]

A little oil shouldn't be a problem, but a leak means less oil in the engine over time and, of course, the indication that something isn't right. It's probably not an urgent issue, but my advice would be to remedy the leak - it's a pretty easy fix. Thank you for the comment, and thanks for watching!
