Can I get some "serious" comments on what may be going on here for cylinder 3... causes, fixes, etc.
Vehicle is currently in limp mode... and may/may not be related to this issue as there are other issues.
However, would this issue prompt the computer to enter limp mode?
Not much you can do for limp mode on this. Since it's probably running on 5 cylinders. You could probably clean the coil boot outter, and inner with some CRC electronic cleaner. Remove the plug then clean it also along with the inner spark well. It's only a matter of time as it will fill up with oil again. Like mentioned already it looks like a failed spark tube oring.
