Hi, I was wondering if anyone knew a solution to a problem with my Hyundai MVI S Coupe 1993 Automatic.

I have oil covering the 2 right hand side spark plugs. I don't seem to be burning alot of oil from the exhaust but I have noticed a lack of power recently.

All suggestions welcome !

Thank you for your consideration

 

i woudl do a compression check.

 

Joe,
Sounds like you valve seals are going.

Thank you Patrick,
Could you give me any advice on how to do the compression check ?, Or point me in the right direction ?
All help gratefully received.

I think the problem may go deeper than valve seals. If oil is getting on the plugs then it is in the compression zone. Which means that one or more of your piston rings may be fried. The comp check that patrick suggested is a good idea and if you have one that is way low chances are thAt is your bad ring.
