Just curious, as I just came back from changing my spark plugs. The front bank (V6) was nice but the rear (kinda hard to get to) two out of three were soaked in oil. I assumed it was motor oil leaking since it looked like it, but it sure didn't smell right (motor oil anytime I check dipstick smells very petrol, almost the same as gasoline; the oil on the plugs had no scent at all!). Now I think it was oil from DIC leaking (as it was also inside the coils; I don't think motor oil would seep that high if leaking). So, should I expect any troubles from that DIC? The car runs fine and shows no CEL.
