Mark VIII 8-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 61,000 miles
Valve covers are very hard to take off. Spark plug seals leak oil, into spark plugs and coils, this is very dangerous, and could case a serious fire. There is no way to tell, if this is happening, until you take the coils covers off, because the coils covers have a rubber seal.
