Burning oil

My 88 Pontiac Firebird keeps fouling out the plugs to the point where they are wet with oil. I dont see any smoke from the exhaust, any ideas?

looping idle

What would cause the 2.8 to idle back and fourth from 2000 to 1000 rpms. The engine slowly climes to 2000 and drops to 1500 or 1000.
