I was in the middle of installing a new ignition coil for my

How much oil we talking?
My 07 Jetta also has oil but it is a very small amount that dried up
I have changed the coils twice already and plugs once and never saw an increase of oil or burnt residue
Car runs fine tho
What do you mean by tweaked with??

There's oil surrounding the spark plug, as for the tweaked coil, its like this about a month ago I was driving and one of spark plugs shot out, breaking the ignition coil. All spark plugs were changed but that one ignition coil, the spring within it was jacked up, so I took a screwdriver and pulled on the spring far enough so that it may touch the spark plug. Once all that was done, my car was running fine until my check engine light came on and I knew it was my coil, and thus that's how discovered there's oil

It's possible that you might need a new valve cover gasket. And that the oil got into the coil pack and caused a failure.

I'm not familiar with Ford Focus, but in general, valve cover gaskets aren't a terribly big deal. Usually within the skillset of most /diy/ers.

Most of the time, there is an O ring on the bottom of the valve cover. Replacent O rings for the plug sockets come with a valve cover kit . Youll have to do it or it will continue to misfire.

maybe the thread is damaged

Your car is perfectly fine and undamaged. Like the other anons said, it could be the valve cover gasket or oring grommets that valve covers have.

With that said, how close is the coil to the oil cap?
I know in some configurations when you change the oil, if you spill it, itll drop right down the hole under your coil.

Not a fun repair if so

Nice to see the bench racing faggots of /o/ have arrived.

OP, if the sparkplug literally popped out of its seat, and unless you got the head rethreaded (and even then I'd be very skeptical, to rethread you's need to either tap a larger thread, or backweld into the hole, redrill and rethread to match the existing spark plug diameter) the oil is 100% blowing past your spark plug. Nothing to do with gaskets or any of the other shit these faggots are going on with. If I had to guess I'd say someone has overtorqued the fuck out of the plug in the past and weakened the threads.

Clean all the oil out, take it for a run, see if the oil returns. Carefully observe the walls of the spark plug hole to verify the oil hasn't leaked from the top down, then start looking for a new head, because as I say, if the thread has ripped out, there's basically no way of repairing it that will be cheaper than a new head.

Pic related, my Focus, about to get a new radiator.

Further to this, ask a friendly mechanic to do a quick compression test on the cylinder in question. If the thread is indeed fucked they should see lower than expected compression. I've never had a mechanic charge me for a 2 minute compression test, I doubt many would.

Hmm, where exactly do you think the oil is coming from. Its "blowing past the threads" but its not a gasket. Then you go off about a compression test. Do you understand what a compression test is actually testing?

Yeah actually you're right, that doesn't logic at all, I was fixated on the "popped" sparkplug. If he has oil in his cylinder he's got bigger problems, which a compression test would also verify. I'd still be worried about those threads though, unless he meant the core of the plug popped out of it's base.

Slinking back to the depths here boss..

Im not saying his engine is fine or that it isnt cross threaded and destroyed.
It could be an under torqued spark plug that jiggled loose and when it blew out it ruined the inner valve gasket which caused the leak afterwards.

OP didnt give a lot to go on. A compression test would be the correct thing to do first.
