Ok, new sensor did not fix it.

Had a chance to remove the plugs and wires and found oil on one of them.

Moving on to check the compression and the valve seals.

Any more ideas?




The oil on plug is usually a symptom of a valve cover gasket leaking internally into the spark plug well. See my "sticky" thread on changing the spark plugs.

Send me an e-mail at mjats@juno.com. I'll forward you the complete diagnostic tree for troubleshooting a P0343 DTC.
