The other day I heard a ticking sound from under the engine, and it sounded like the injectors, so i put a screwdriver up to each injector to listen, and cyilnder 4 was ticking a lot slower than the others.
So I threw an injector in from my old KA, and it still did it. Today I go to start it up, and it wouldnt turn over, after about 15 cranks, it starts up, and cylinder four is completely missing, like its not even plugged in or something.
So I pull my spark plug, its covered in oil, so I buy a new one and no difference.
A few months ago i had my valve cover off and forgot to put the plug well grommet back in, so all four plug wells had a bunch of oil in em. I cleaned it up as best I could, but I'm thinking/hoping thats what the oil was from. The other plugs looked dry.
Anybody have any ideas of what the hell could be causing this? Thanks.
edit- forgot to mention that when I rev it up, it smooths out, like its firing good, but white smoke pours out of the exhaust and it smells like straight gasoline.
