oil on the spark plugs? isn't that indicative of oil seal or valve gasket leaking? If I remember correctly, Turbo engines generate their spark from the CPS (cam position sensor) rather than a rotor in a distributor cap. I'd have to imagine it could be timing, could be a bad sensor, even seized cams.

Also, if you're not getting spark, you might want to check components in the ignition system prior to the inner workings of your cylinder... battery, starter, etc.. hoping that any discrepancies in my statement(s) will be corrected by those who know better... so not only might this be helpfull to OP or anyone else doing research, but also educate and correct my misconception(s).
