Dead cylinder!!??
Ok so today I started my car, drove for a while then I felt a knocking when I drove it. I decided to check the sparkplugs and to my surprise one of them was filled with oil. So yeah I had a leak there, and I guess that gave me the dead cylinder?
Ok now, how do I fix the dead cylinder because I am definetly running on three cylinders ??

oil in the sparkplug hole on in the cylinder? If its around the plug hole, that means the gasket has gone bad, or not seated properly

Do a compresion test and a spark test, it could be a spun bearing! New valve cover spark plug grommets will stop oil in your spark plug hole.
