WITH THE PLUG STILL IN spray wd40 in the hole about 1\4 full scrap around in the hole with a small screwdriver let set for a little bit the fill the hole 1\2 full with wd40 let set and eather blow it out with a air hose or suck it out with a shop vac (you may need a minco cleaning end for the vac). Repeat as needed when the hole is clean break the plug free no more then a turn or two recheck for dirt in the hole. That what works for me.Russell Houghton NS Canada
The engine is burning oil!!!
if the oil is at the spark plug base the valve cover gasket is leaking. if the spark plug electrode is covered with oil the engine needs rings
No there should not be any oil where you plug your spark plugs into
You have an oil leak
Oil deposits on the spark plug is caused by poor oil control. Oil is leaking past worn valve guides or piston rings into the cumbustion camber.
If you mean on the exterior of the spark plug then the valve cover gasket is leaking. If it is on the electrode of the plug you are burning oil.
Screw out spark plug then screw in non fouler then screw in spark plug in non fouler.
Oil on the outside of the spark plug is normally a sign of a leaking valve cover gasket. Oil on the spark plug electrode, (plug must be removed to see this oil), is normally a sign of a broken or worn piston ring. A compression test will verify if a ring is worn or broken.
valve cover and spark plug tube gaskets. they come together in a kit
If you are talking about oil on the outside of the spark plug then you have a leaking valve cover gasket. Oil on the spark plug electrode is a sign of defective rings and an engine in need of an overhaul.
It's probably The spark plug well gaskets. You need to remove valve cover and replace the gaskets for the spark plug wells and valve cover. it's a easy repair.

I had the same problem when i went to change my plugs. It was the rocker cover gasket
