Help please

my 95 Esi is running really bad lately. When the car is at idle it sounds like it is going to die, but never does. The engine just putts alot. Also, when i turn the A/C on there is a loud breathing sound that is coming from the intake i think. What could be the problem??

I pulled out the spark plugs to see if that is the problem, and the plugs look fine. Only thing that got me was that the plugs were covered in oil....? Is that normal or what?

Re: Help please

sounds like you could have a loose or cracked vacaum line. check all the connections and if in doubt replace it or wire tie it tight
