I always check my oil at gas stations because that's the flattest place. Well, a few weeks ago I checked and put in a quart. Only after the engine started running rough did I notice that particular gas station wasn't flat at all but on a hill, and I had overfilled the oil.
Now I've changed the oil and it's at the right level but still running rough. I think one of the plugs is fouled. Which one?
Can I measure the resistance with an ohmmeter, or will an oil-fouled plug give me an open-circuit reading (same as a clean plug)?
The vehicle is a '95 S-10 Blazer Vortec V-6. During the period it had too much oil it was parked (1) leaning-slightly-right, (2) perfectly flat, (3) facing uphill, and occasionally (4) facing downhill. I guess if I can't measure the resistance I'll check the cylinder at the back right corner first.
