Hey so I replaced the spark plugs yesterday , upon pulling 4 of the 6 plugs , I found oil soaked plugs.
I believe this is due to a leaky valve cover gasket , not something more severe .
I got the car all back together , and it starts right up and feels like it literally doubled in power , the only problem I am having is , in park , if I press the gas pedal even slightly , like 1/4 " , it literally falls on its face . ( similar to chopping the throttle on a dirt bike , )
the car idles fine and runs smoother at idle . And like I said doubled in engine performance . Except the falling on its face pressing gas pedal in park .
any ideas what it might be ?

the car idles fine and runs smoother at idle . And like I said doubled in engine performance . Except the falling on its face pressing gas pedal in park .

Both , I'm pretty sure , prior to pulling the plug it would of just been on the top of the plug , only reason it showed up on the diode I believe is due to oil must've been puddled up by the threads , which leaked onto diode upon pulling
