I am gonna bet one cylinder gets better when wet......probably #4
A leakdown test would not hurt either

Are we sure it was put together right. After working on some of the A,s I found out some guys can do anything wrong. Maybe it has a scraper ring on the number two groove up side down. Then it would scrape the oil up instead of down.
