I gave a full tune up on my car back in March. ( Plugs, Wires, Filters, Oil, etc...) Well it was running great for a month or so and then it started chugging and puking. Well I later found the problem to just be a simple vaccum leak and replaced all the hoses. Ran great again for about another month and started all over again. Well I then found oil to be on the top of the three back spark plugs but not on the bottom half so I knew it wasn't a O-Ring so I replaced the Valve Cover Gaskets. Well I'm still getting oil on the plugs and have no idea why. I believe the chuggin is from a bad Mass airflow sensor or the EGR valve but I'm not sure. One is $90 and the other is $170 and non returnable. So I guess I will have to take a gamble with that. The oil on the plugs is confusing the hell out of me. I know its not the O-rings or the valve cover gaskets and oil doesn't flow through the intake gasket.
Does anyone have any suggestions on what the problem may be for both issues? Thanks

Let me use my ESP this is a ve30de motor with aluminum valve cover.Valve covers gaskets come with spark plug rings, were properly installed? The only thing that would cause problems is clogged up PVC or to much engine wear resulting in blow by causing oil to be forced into the spark plug holes. You were ready to put the 16 year old max out to pasture weren't you?

properly the sensor detects how plenty air is flowing to adjust how plenty gasoline to push into the equipment. notably much like an oxygen or air/gasoline ratio sensor. it shouldnt die whether this is not stable for mileage to disconnect it.
