if it does have to do with the fuel mixture, you could possibly have an old fuel filter causing it to not get the fuel flow you need, but i think if the fuel filter was bad, it would take a little extra time to start it

good point sebba, it could idle like a champ at idle, but the thing it when you put the gas to the engine your spark plugs might be off just a liiiittle bit cousing them to not fire correctly.. this well cause access oil on them..

wow please learn english...

. No the spark being off is not was causes oil on them. The valve cover seals being bad is what causes the oil on them. And the oil on them is what will cause them to foul out. Get it
