      The deposits almost look like leaded fuel deposits. My GP DOHC had leaded fuel deposits on its plugs. Is that oil or fuel on the threads of the plug?

          is the oil on all the plugs
          is it more on one side of the plug or no
          the orange just happend on plugs as they are used thats normal
          although i dont think it should be THAT orange after only 3k miles
          have you put anything into your tank cept for gas
          i.e. octane booster or fuel system cleaner
