I started to investigate the cause of my #3 spark plugs oil fouling problem 
yesterday and
havent found anything obvious.  After taking the head off it does appear that 
the intake
valve guide on that cylinder is a bit worn.  I can wiggle the valve just the 
slightest bit
in guide.  Question is will a marginal valve guide with a new good valve seal 
cause enough
of a problem to oil foul a plug?  If the answer is likely not then I may still 
need to
look at the rings.  The oil is obviously coming from somewhere.
