Your injector orings are leaking letting oil mix with fuel around the injector. This also explains the idle problem as it probably can't maintain enough oil pressure to operate the injector. Good time for a DIY Stage 1s

It fits all your symptoms and with the miles if not ever done before likely. Hopefully others may have other ideas. Not a terriblely hard job to do and about 90bucks for the parts plus an oil change.This price is for orings only not stage1s.
