could be bad rings.. could be cracked head. could be bad valve guide seals or valve guides. start by doing a compression test. get the compression guage from autozone. screw it in to the spark plug hole remove all the sparkplugs, turn the engine over, the needle will jump. let it jump 7-8 times and it should settle out to a final number. write down the number starting with #1 sparkplug, and continue down the block to #4. if the number is more than 15% difference between two you have a problem if they arent then its something fuel related. are you sure its oil? could it be carbon. if it smells like gas then its carbon. also try replacing the plugs.
