i have a evo 8 and the spark plug in cylinder no 2 is charred black, while others are fine. the car is also giving out little black smoke when i give it throttle on neutral.

why is this? my car has been just sitting for 3 months due to a valve seal failure and now its fixed but the cylinder no 2 spark plug is black.

i also have 3 CEL's P0141(oxygen heater sensor fault rear),P1400 ( manifold diffrential pressure circuit malfunction) P0107 (manifold absolute pressure circuit low voltage)

can you guys please help me with the issues, thanks.

Do you have a pic of the plug? Charred or more sooty?

Do you have a checklist of items you have already verified are in working order? New plugs/plug gap, compression check, injectors working properly/clean...

Maybe someone else can chime in on the codes and how those might be affecting your condition.

I've never heard of these two CEL's but that's where I would start. Find out what they mean.
