Oil around the spark plugs!!!

You need to pull one plug wire off a plug, then stick a screwdriver in the end and hold the screwdriver shaft about 1/4" away from some metal on engine. Have someone crank the engine and see if there is spark jumping to ground. Yes? then you have spark.
No? then you have an ignition problem.

Yes, spark, then you may have a fuel delivery problem. If so, then the test procedures are in the TSRM, but you may need professional help.
