Greetings people, I don't know if there is a post to appear but here I will: I'm from Mexico and I have a pontiac g3 2008 engine 1.6l of 16 valv. automatic.

I have a series of details, this car has given me a lot co -one casually after defeated the guarantee hahaha:

when starting it in cold, the "bell" "" "vibrate" "engine is thrown out" and stabilizes when it is heated. From time to time it turns on the check Engine, they tell me that to scan it it must be turned on, casually never is when I want to take it haha. 2 spark plugs are wet (for the part where the cables are connected), I assume it is oil, for 3 years of life, I doubt they are the rings ... They tell me that it can be the joint for which my spark plugs are being wet ... if so, how does it come out as it comes out? Apart from that I have read that the valves can also be ...

Thank you very much in advance for any advice that can be provided, if you need information on my part, tell me and put it. Greetings.

Hello Pochaco. Have you read Murphy's laws? Pus are true, when a team is expired the guarantee will fail. As for your engine I imagine that the two spark plugs are always the same, it can be poor spark plug, piston rings or valve guides, if they get wet where the cables are connected it can be the packaging of the rocker cover that would be the lesser evil. Anyway you are in the hands of your mechanic. Luck.

Thank you for responding, in effect, it is always those 2 spark plugs that are right to the right is 3 and 4, I deduce is the packaging you mention because the upper part of the lid is always dirty, the same where the lid is joined with the rest of the engine because it finds a small oil leak. Do you have any idea how much this packaging comes out? I ask to prepare because I think it is very necessary to correct that detail and because I do not have much money at the moment hehe. Greetings.

Hello Pochaco. As I told you before, that is the lesser evil, the price of the packaging is cheap and you can change it, and if not, the mechanic will not charge much
