1995 Acura Integra 4 cyl Automatic 170000 miles
----------------------------------------------------------------
'95 Integra LS non-VTEC, automatic, ~170K miles.

I have a K&N-style cone filter, which I recently cleaned and re-oiled. About 24 hours later my car wouldn't start, even though I had driven it a couple of times since cleaning the air filter. Just from looking it's apparent I over-oiled the filter, and there is a stain on the pavement from where the excess has been dripping off.

The starter turns the engine, but it won't run. The fuel pump sounds like it's working. I called a mechanic and described the problem; he told me the spark plugs were probably fouled. I replaced them and attempted to start the car again with the air-filter off, but was unsuccessful.

Also, when changing the plugs, I found that in one cylinder the plug was covered in motor oil, but I suspect that the leak is a different, pre-existing problem.

Any input/advice is greatly appreciated.

***EDIT*** Just tested, no spark.
