I have been desperately trying to find the vacuum leak in my car for months now. Well I think I found it. When I spray starter fluid down into the spark plug wells the engine revive. You can actually see the starting fluid being sucked up at the threads of the spark plug. Having recently replaced the spark plugs a month ago I thought maybe I just needed to torque them down a bit more. Manual says 22 foot pounds.
Anyway, I retorqued therm and it's still a problem. The plugs did come with a crush washer.
I have read the spark plugs wells can leak, but you would get oil on your spark plug, which I do not.
Before I run out and buy better spark plugs does anyone have any ideas?
