If so it could be a ring problem or a valve stem leak.
A pressure test on that cylinder should be done and compared to the others.
Fuel problems show up as grayish or tan colored deposits, likely in the form of whiskers. They would also be on all plugs.
I am not sure it was a little low on oil but it has an oil leak i will be looking at this weekend. Not sure where from yet found oil on the plastic lower cover when changing the plugs. It was not there last time i changed the oil. I love this car but it has been one thing after another since we bought it. With such low miles you wouldnt expect these problems. Still looks and smells like new. Hell the window sticker residue was still on the window when we bought it.
