well, hate to be captain obvious here, but proably pull the heads for a start. might be bad valves in the heads or bad rings? mabeye a leak from intake. someone else im sure will be able to tell ya more
Define "filled with oil".....
If just oily,,, and not really filled, you need to determine if the oil is the cause of these three cylinders not firing, or if the oil is the result of the cylinders not firing....
This question is HUGE.... the situation sounds dismal at this very moment,but the answer to this question may determine if your engine is in need of overhaul, or if you just need some plug wires and/or sparkplugs...
