getting car started...

Well I went to put some oil in my spark plug holes to see if I could get my car started and it seemed like all the oil was spilling out. How do you get it to stay in there? I was using the right kind of funnel with a slim flexible tube. It was getting in there but spilling out.

Sounds like the rotor was in just the right place to block it. Just turn it a little by hand.

Use a tube or w/e and get it in there, put the plug back in and turn the engine over a bit to get to the next face.

Leave the lower plugs in, and fill the upper ones. Makes filling it easier..
