Just Bought A 1995 Eagle Talon Non-turbo. The Guy I Bought It Off Of Sold It As Is And Said It Needed A Head Gasket. When I Started Taking A Closer Look At The Car I Noticed The Air Filter Had Oil At The Bottom Of It, But The Rest Of It Was New Looking. After Removing The Intake Tubing About 2 Ounces Of Oil Was Inside. The Butterfly Was Covered In Oil And So Is The Plennum. The Dipstick Is Right On The Max Line. After Cleaning The Oil Out Of The Intake Tubing, I Started The Car And After A Couple Of Min. No More Smoke But Rough Idle. Has Anybody Had A Problem Like This Or Did This Guy Fill The Oil Too High? I Have Not Done A Leak-down Or Compression Test Yet.
 
Take off the hose that comes off of your PCV valve and see if it spits out oil. My guess is that your motor has blow-by and is pushing oil out that valve and into your intake tract. I don't know much about the 420a motor, but its pretty much the same from car to car.
