Oil Leak

[spdkilz02]

OK, this past week I changed my plugs, and then yesterday I put on some msd plug wires as well. On Tuesday I changed the plugs and noticed when I took the cover off to get to the plugs and wires, that the one sensor on the passenger side had oil laying all around it. It has 2 wires I believe going to it and also 1 bolt that seems to hold it in place. So I cleaned all that oil out to see how bad it was leaking, and then noticed again yesterday that it had more oil in it again.

So my questions are, what is that sensor?, and do you think it is just an o-ring there or something else?

thanks

well just found on FJ that it is the VCT Sensor, and that others have had a known problem with it as well.

Yes, VCT, and O ring.
