Shawn,

Fuel is there because it isn't igniting, most likely due to the oil
fouling the plugs. The big question is why is the plug getting fouled,
could be valve guide seals which can be fixed but will require removal
of the head.

I believe your first step is a compression test to try and determine
if your rings are in good shape ... but others will have to confirm
this.

It's interesting you're wondering what to do. I've been pondering what
to do when my engine goes, the silver S4's got 270,000 miles on the
engine.

Just wondering what the list thinks of the eurospec 2.6 stroker?
Is it a reliable replacement or just a short term power increase?

Chris
