Pull the Spark plug wire and then use a dry cotton cloth with a flat screwdriver and get as much oil out as you can that way. Then pull the spark plug out and let the remainder of the oil flow back into the cylinder hole. Clean the plug off good so it will not short out the cylinder. Replace the spark plug. You will see a little smoke from the oil burning but it will be OK. You will need to replace the valve cover gasket to stop this problem from reocurring. Make sure to use a silicone sealer with the new gasket. Not hard to repair and can be done in about 1 hour. Make sure to clean the area where the gasket goes and remove all old gasket material.

2000 Ford Contour and when you went to change spark plug you knotice oil inside two plug compartments. Whats wrong and how do you fix it?
You need to replace the Valve cover gaskets, the spark plug chamber gaskets, and the pcv valve on your car. This, in most cases, fixes that problem. While doing this, make sure you use some kind of engine degreaser cleaner to clean out the plug chamber to get rid of all the oil residue.
