But did you change the plugs too?
New plug wires will not have any effect with fouled plugs.

I only changed the fouled plug since all the other Champions were good.

ORIGINAL: sdsilvere38

Well, just got back from the Rover Indy and he said that all cylinders are getting perfect compression but the #5 cylinder is putting a little bit of oil on the plug causing a misfire. He said it could be a valve sticking. Can this be fixed without a rebuild? Will the ATF "oil" change clear this up?
What were the compression numbers or at least how far off is #5?
Has a leak down test been performed?
Don't do anything to the engine till we can get more information.
I would also suggest you send me your tele number so we can get more specific.
