    Leaky Rocker Cover?

    Getting a build of oil in spark plug holes 3 and 4 and a bit of anti freeze in 2, 1 is perfectly clean.

    Im thinking rocker cover explains the in 3 and 4 oil but i cant get me head round the anti freeze in 2.

    Any suggestions?

    cheers folks

    If it's oil in 3 and 4, its almost certainly the rocker cover gasket. I've had the same problem on my 19 a few times. It's only about £10 i think for a new one, and pretty easy to fit.

    Like you though, no idea about the antifreeze in 2!

    Better to get it sorted out sooner rather than later, if not you'll probably have problems getting the car started and rough running from cold until the oil build up gets burnt off
