99 1.6 running on 3 cylinders - astraman1999
hi guys
got a 1999 astra mk4 1.6 16v which is running on 3 cylinders, on removal of the spark plug one of them was covered in oil which is obviously causing the problem, as you look under the bonnet its the one farest right, that however is the end on my mechanical knowledge :-( what causes this and more importantly how much should it cost to put right

thanks in advance for any help you can give me
