Hi previously i put a post about car stalling after 20 miles or so but suggestions didnt go with what iv found today, after looking over the engine and pulling the ht lead out of the 3rd cylinder i found loads of oil on top of the spark plug. it covered the spark plug and on ht lead aswell, the other spark plugs had slight amount of oil but not much. (left and right of the sparkplug with loads) I realy have no clue of what it could be, and someone out there on here must of experienced it already. Is it rocker cover gasket? The car is giving off a bit of white smoke aswell but i havnt been able to take spark plugs out yet as i have not got my tools. Any ideas on what it could be. Thanks:bang:
 
Could be the rocker gasket, it happened to mine last week. Change the gasket as it's only about a tenner, this should stop the oil buildup in the plug well but the fact that you've got white smoke could mean the head gasket is on it's way out as well :( have a look at the underside of the oil cap, are there any creamy deposits?

No creamy deposits or even bubbling in water, So suggests it could be to do with the other problem i have, "STALLING ISSUE"
Whats the item number because i cant find a gasket for my car? Its a fiat brava 1.4 sx
