Changed out spark plugs and VC, lots of white smoke
I finally got all the pieces from ebay for my 03 maximas overhaul. New plugs, 04-06 rear valve cover, and an Ignition coil. I had a SES light on saying #1 cylinder was bad. The #5 spark plug hole had the oil inside it so after reading lots of post on the board I bought the new 04-06 VC. The spark plug seals on the new one are rubber which should keep out the oil. My question is once everything was together I started the car and lots of white smoke came out for a minute or two. It did clear up after letting the car run a while, but just wanted to make sure this was normal. The smoke didnt have a smell.
Thanks

Regarding the smoke issue, I have a 99 Maxima SE with No.1 plug coil boot, splug, and boot swimming in oil......car smokes like a freight train. Can this VC boot allow oil to enter the combustion chamber? Doesn't seem logical if the splug is torqued to specs......confused !
