all new can of worms ..... i pulled out rather quick from a parking lot last night and hit a huge bump that blewe the valve stem off my front right tire ... when my tire went flat i pulled ovwer but then i noticed that the car started to idle at around 300 rpm's WTF? and it jumps up to like 5 or 6 hundred every few seconds .... my spark plug boots are covered in oil and i took a plug boot off while it was running and oil started bubbling up ... does this mean my plug is covered in oil where it fires? would getting a valve cover gasket help stop this? please help somebody .. this is a dailydriver and is needed soon .... thanks

Possible that your piston seals have gone.You can get a quick fix from an automotive shop but, it's only good for a few thousand miles. You pour it in your plug pots and it will seal any leaks. Can't remember what it's called but the guy in the shop will know.
