[QUOTE="b52bombardier1, post: 100342, member: 5931"] That plug probably will not fire because it is likely now conductive across the formerly white insulator. The spark simply drains across the oily film rather than arcing. You are either terminally rich with the fuel mixture or you are leaking oil from a valve seal. There is also an outside chance that you have a bad oil control ring on your piston. All of these items are repairable. Was that a new spark plug recently installed? Rick [/QUOTE]
