Liquid on spark plug
Posted: April 15th, 2005, 2:18 pm
Yesterday, my brother added some liquid additive in the oil. But he had the "bad
" idea to add it with the engine running (at idle speed) :
- he has started the engine, and let it at idle speed,
- than he has removed the oil filling cap (with the engine still running at idle speed), and immediately had the liquid additive
- as the oil filing cap was opened the engine stopped.
The problem is that from now I couldn't start again the engine.
And when I've removed one of the spark plugs, I found it's inside part was completely covered by some liquid (oil additive ?).
Do you have any idea what should I do ?
Any idea to remove possible liquid in cylinders ? with some tube ?
If it didn't happened when liquid additive was added, I would perhaps had suspected the head gasket, but in this described case it seems surprising ?
I need help before going in futher investigation.
Thanks.
