hey guys, i just replaced my tube seals about 3 months ago, and there is still some oil in the chambers. i know this because i just pulled all 4 spark plugs out and they were covered in oil. my question is if it's ok to take a shop vac and suck out the rest of the oil thats in the chambers. i dont wanna do it just in case itll fuck something up. so, any input will be greatly appreciated.

But to answer your question, yeah it shouldn't hurt anything.

How would this oil get "BURNED" ? When you pull the plugs the trapped oil will drip down into the combustion chambers. Is that what you mean ? I don't think I would pull out engine oil with a shop vac. They are made to pull water not oil. On my 88 Prelude, I cleaned out the spark plug wells with a 12ga shotgun, fat cotton swab and choke cleaner fluid.Originally posted by 1993 CB7 LX View Postyes, i did. im saying that there is still some oil in the chambers that didnt get burned. is it okay to suck out that oil with a shop vac?
