hmm....I didn't know anything about it smoking. Well there wasn't much I could do today, not until I get my compression gauge back tommorow. The thing is I'm not sure if te oil on the spark plug has anything to do with this problem or not...there isn't a lot of it on there, that may just be a coincidence. The reason I'm thinking this is because it doesn't start (well for more than a couple of seconds). If it were just the one cylinder it would still start, so I dunno, kinda makes me think it might something like a crank angle sensor or 02 or somthing. Anyways I should be able to tell if it is engine internal or not after I do a compression test tommorow. If it ends up being something internal I might have to take you guys up on some of these offers
