Ok , so it was raining this morning as i was going to work, car was fine but.....i didn't let it heat it like usual..usually i let it get warm like 2-3 mins before i drive it, but this morning i was running late so i just took off, it drove fine until i almost got to the exit of my apt complex, i believe i heard something squeal as i was accellerating, in 2nd gear going to 3rd. After that happened, i left my apt complex right onto the highway and man...i felt sluggish and heavy misfires as i was trying to accelerate , i was in 3rd gear but felt sluggish had no power so i downshifted to 2nd but man just misfired each time i tried to accelerate.... luckily there was a dirt road that i turned into and got out of the way of traffic. As i tried to start the car up, it just heavy misfires then dies......i looked at spark plugs and the were all drenched with oil (not a good sign right). anyone know what i might've done or what could've happened? timming slip? or block dmg? plz anything would help thx !! Shop diagnostic was gonna charge me 120$ to have it checked out so i said fck that..

i've been reading up at forums and post everywhere...nothing seems to have the same issues like i do, but lets say.....if the timing did skip a tooth, what do i need to do if it DID skip a tooth? cuz i know the only time my engine squeals is from the timing belt cuz i've heard it from there before and sprayed some hush hush squeal spray on it...how do i readjust the timing if i did jump a tooth....thx again guys, im a noob, i don't know everything, but would like to seek the answer from those who know ty

update, ok so i went out, usually misfiring is due to spark plugs area correct? anyways, i check plugs , wires, took dizzy and cap out cleaned , haven't taken dizzy to check if its shot, but i just thought that dizzy still good cuz my car can still start up. Ok now moving on, after doing some TLC at those areas, i started it back up and it sounded good idling for like 8 secs then it started to choke and gag, and when i press on the gas, it just misfires and i can see at the tip of my exhaust is traces of fuels not being burned.. does this help? I mean everything check out fine.....next thing to do would be to take head cover off and see if it really did jump a tooth. Plz anyone got any ideas, i'd really appreciate it!!
