    Then I believe you have answered your own question. It would warrant pulling at least the intake to be sure. You will probably find the same port soaked. Intake and exhaust. If it were anything else,( i.e.:PCV valve ), all plugs would be wet.

      If this one cylinder is going bad how much do you think it will cost to get it fixed?

        What does your oil smell like??

        Some fuel smell is normal, even if one pistons rings were bad it would smell alot worse.

        Do you have any oil in the coolant or coolant in the oil. A worn valve spring can cause low compression.

        the only place that the PCV system can really pull oil up is at the center crank case.

        What your oil pressure??

          My oil smells normal and coolant is clean. I don't know what the oil pressure is. The car just idles like crap, gets about half the gas milege, and theres oil in the intake. I have asked 2 different mechanics and they can't tell me whats wrong with it so I don't know. I think the only thing to do is tear the motor apart and check it out.

            You have to start a tear down. Pull your intake and find out which cylinder is oil soaked. This is the nature of the internal combustion engine. Not even computers can deal with it. It does suck,...but it is also physics.
