Re: new piston rings?

Well your valve cover gasket is probably leaking that's why there is oil on your plugs. and for the sputtering, I would say new plug wires. To find out if your piston rings are fried, go do a compression test. It should read anywhere between 180 and 225 if your rings are healthy.
