Oil On Spark Plug Causes Misfiring by femi4: 3:39pm On Jul 29, 2016
My Honda Accord misfires due to oil found on one or two spark plugs after a while. I have to either clean the plugs or do spark plug replacement in order to get optimal performance.

Any permanent solution to this problem

For you to find oil on your plugs is not a good sign. I suggest doing a comprehensive service and checks to be sure this is not the inital signs of a serious underlying problem about to manifest it self.
Does your oil short?
Your engine may compression ratio maybe low. ie you lose power on hill climb etc.
Be proactive and check your engine before a serious problem develops.

check for the sign of oil again on the particular plug that was having it and if the result is positive then this clearly shows that oil is getting to the combustion chamber through a leak.
Go for cylinder compression test to determine the cause of leak if is through a worn piston,worn valve or other means.
