Best Answer

If you mean "why is there oil on the spark plug" that's because like most lawn equipment, the engine is a two stroke type. Two stroke gas engines are lubricated via the fuel which is mixed in a certain proportion ( usually 35:1 or 50:1) and residual oil will build up in the combustion chamber. Also this may be a sign that the engine is not running right and usually resolved by just cleaning or replacing the spark plug
