Several possabilities. One is a bad PCV valve if it leads to that bank of cyl. Another is the intake gasket for that side of the engine. Worst case, but not likely as it is affecting all of the cyl, is a failed head gasket. One question, are the plugs fouling with fuel or oil? If over fueling, it could also be an injector or injector wireing issue. Could it also be bad oxygen sensors? If there are four oxygen sensors on this van, and the one for the right bank of cylinders is giving the wrong reading, that could cause this problem. Seems unlikely, though.

Burning excessive oil in the cylinders is the culprit. Scored cylinders and broken rings will usually contribute to blue smoke. Once it turns black, the engine is toast!
Should you change to park plugs if too much oil is causing your car to stall?
Well, one has little to do with the other. If you have too much oil in your motor, drain it, change the filter and put the appropriate amount of oil in it. If the spark plugs have oil on them, or if the car blows blue smoke out the tail pipe when you step on the gas, you probably have worn piston rings on the cylinders and changing the plugs won't help, at least for long. Have a mechanic do a compression check on your cylinders. He will be able to tell you then how your piston rings are holding up. If they are bad, have them changed (not cheap at all) and then change your plugs.
Will a bad alternator cause new spark plugs to smoke?
Spark plugs don't smoke. A bad alternator would cause a dead battery.
Car broke down white smoke and will not crank now?
White smoke is water getting into the cylinders. Blown head gasket, cracked block or other serious issue caused this. If it cranks and will not catch, they plugs may be fouled from the water. If it will not crank at all, you have a frozen engine. This is often terminal for the car.
