Each time I check the plugs I find that the trailing plugs are
very oily. If I tap them on my hand I get quite a bit of liquid out. The leading
plugs are also wet, but not oily.
Where's all the oil
coming from? Was the engine assembled with more than the average amount of
goo, or maybe stored with some sort of oil for protection? Wet, oily plugs
aren't going to fire well, if at all, so that's got to be part of the
problem.
Try removing the plugs,
turning off the engine computer, and crank the engine over enough to blow some
of that crap out. Next install NEW (not cleaned) plugs and give
it another try.
Good
luck.

the Lycoming owners)
