The super-rich fuel mixture is not completly burned and the excess gas washes the cylinder walls. Some fuel drains down past the rings and settles in the oil sump. The washed cyl walls, and rings, also wear the cylinders.
Right on the button.
Excess fuel from: leaking injectors, cold start valve, clogged air filter, faulty fuel regulator.
