If the spark plug is fouled ("too rich" or in other words: Too much fuel, not enough air or spark to ignite): It is possible that the rich fuel will dirty up an O2 sensor, which may trigger a P0420 error.
The P0420 code normally indicates a bad catalectic converter. It can also indicate something wrong with the Powertrain Control Module (PCM), bad ignition timing, bad spark plugs, bad fuel injectors, intake air leaks or bad spark plugs.

Trouble code P0420 means:Catalyst system efficiency below threshold
That error code is for a single cylinder misfire. Bad spark plugs or wires can cause this as well as a bad fuel injector.
