Is my engine on the way out?

I have a 1991 z24 3.1 with a 5 spd. When I start it and move from a dead stop it wants to die. My engine is running/idling rougher by the day. I found a spark plug out of the engine yet again. Why is this happening? Oil accumulates on the top of the engine and the oil level is low constantly.

Re: Is my engine on the way out?

The plug backs itself out of the engine. The pcv valve is the only thing i have not checked and there is a vac leak behind the engine. This seems to happen repeatedly though and with different plugs/cylinders.
