So.
I was rebuilt a while ago , have gone 2,000 miles +/-....swapped to manual recently but that's not relevant.
After arriving in chicago my car would not start and ran like shit, so i look under the hood, and a spark plug wire was out. I was like wtf? Put it back in, popped out again and again.
So, I had no other choice but to limp back home, so I do so.
After halfway near home I hear something like hit the bottom of my car like it fell out, no idea what it is.
Around 5 minutes later, it starts to drop rpms, so I decided that I was just going to give it up and let her live.
It was burning oil like crazy, and my whole rear end is splattered with oil.
It burns oil, so I did add around a quart of oil, and oil level was at "the correct" spot, so i'm not too sure wtf happened.
Oh yes, and I did figure there is air coming out from spark plug hole, and the valves nearest the timing belt are depressed in the front, but no other valves are depressed in the front, and they should be, no?
So the million dollar question: What seals/ What happened?

Rebuild sure wasn't fubared tho, maybe backyard ghetto but not fubar.
Since it was leaking compression out of the spark plug hole?
