Default READ CAREFULLY

I bought a 93 Integra Sedan, and it was running pretty rough. I ended up unplugging all three driver side coil packs, and the motor still ran the same. So I have no cylinders firing on the driver side. I pulled the coil packs out and the spark plug WELL was full of oil. So I changed the valve cover gasket and plug well seals. Now, I'm still not getting any firing on the driver side cylinders. So I pull the coil packs again and now the spark plug wells are full of gas.

Again, I am talking about the spark plug well, not the tip of the plug. WTH is going on with this motor?

1st if there is a change the oil has gas in it drain it all and put new oil in, while you do that get a new cap+rotor and new plug wires/spark plugs. The car sounds like it suffered serious neglect, how would "RAW gas" get all the way in there? I assume you mean a liquid with a heavy gas smell.

Goodness. Considering that this is your very first post, you're pretty presumptuous in instructing us to "read carefully".

In spite of your arrogance, I did "read carefully", and I will address your points one-by-one. I hope you read this reply as carefully as I read your post.

"driver side coil packs"
Unless you have some sort of aftermarket COP setup, you do not have "coil packs", just plug wires. The one, single coil is inside the distributor, which is hanging off the side of the valve cover.

"the spark plug WELL was full of oil. So I changed the valve cover gasket and plug well seals"
Typical problem, and the correct fix is what you just did. Properly done, of course...

"spark plug wells are full of gas"
"Gas"? But you just said they were full of oil. So which is it? Oil or gas? If gas, you've got some heap big problem, kemosabe.

"WTH is going on with this motor?"
Who knows? Maybe the distributor cap is defective. No pics, little information. Hard to say. As far as the oil/gas problem goes, I suspect you've done a poor job of replacing the seals.

Sounds like your flooding the engine with fuel cause of the multiple misfires. find out why your not getting spark to those cylinders. Its not a misfire do to no fuel or injectors not firing cause obviously its flooding the cylinders maybe the wires are bad maybe the plugs are done for who knows you need to diagnose the misfire. Soak up all the fuel and use new spark plugs if there bad. check the ecu for any codes and if theres any codes fix the issue and or clear the codes if its the misfire and or reset the ecu, then fire up the engine. If its still misfiring your gonna keep flooding the engine if you rev it or idle.
