I recently checked my spark plugs because ive been neglecting my car for a while so its about time. On all 4 plugs where the thread is it is dark wet and assume it is oil. On the 4th it looked my little solid bits aswell. What could be my problem here and how can i fix this? Thanks shaun

If there is oil down the spark plug tubes the rocker cove and tube seals will be leaking, if the deposits are on the plug electrodes fit new plugs they may just be well over due for replacing, start here.
