leaking grommets may have caused stall..?
so im driving back late @ 1 and my car stalled, i pull in a parking lot. i dont feel like fixing it so i walk home a couple miles. This morning I ride my bike out and check things out and my spark plug holes were filled with about 1/2 inch of oil. Ive seen this happen b4 so i dry up as much oil as I can, clean the plugs and the cyclinder. I go to start and it wont. I got spark thats pretty weak. I got fuel vapor coming out. SO... im thinking maybe I still got oil in the cylinders that are not allowing it to combust, or bad ignition coil. I dont think there is any internal engine damage. Dont not hear any unusual noisies when it stalled, just the GAAASSPP it makes. give me some imput please . thanks

sounds like the ring gaskets (or grommets) from the valve cover are bad or missing. you have a weak spark because the plug wires are drenched with oil.
you need to soak up more of it.
