So you had absolutely no oil in the pan when you checked it?

The bushings could be worn. Does the motor shutter when your car idles or does it shutter when only pressing the accelerator?

You may have caused some internal damage by running it dry. Is it making any noise?

Well, if there was no oil as claimed, the motor would have seized. That basically means you either burned off all of the oil or had a massive oil leak. Any any case, the oil light would have come on long before.

Oil light is more like an idiot light. By the time it comes on, your motor is pretty much done. Although I've seen Hondas go a long ways with the oil light on, before ruining the engine.

Sorry let me explainit a lil bit better. I was drivin to a race track but i forgot to check the oil and it was about a 2 and a half hour drive, on the way there i miss shift my gear from 3 to 4 and redline the car really bad. I thought it wasnt any big deal so like 20 mins later when we got there we stopped at a redlight and my engine just started to shutter and it stall on me. when i started it back up my idle wouldnt go up more then 1100 and the car would shake really bad and it would stall again. The only to prevent it from stallin again was to step on the gas and high rev, once i went over 40 on 4th everything was fine. When we changed the oil after gettin back it was really black. we also change the spark plugs, We also found out that Exhaust pro messed with my o2 sensor, so we put that back together but after like 10 mins of drivin the light came back on. The engine stills shutter, My friend thinks the timin is off when i miss shift, everything messed up. I know its gonna cost me alot to bring it in a shop but i rather do it myself. hope this is better, I'm really mad at the moment because its the only car i got to work and places.

Now that you mentioned you miss-shifted, you most likely have bent a few valves... maybe put too much stress on a rod. Basically, you are not going to know definitive unless you disassemble the motor.

Went to a auto shop to get a look at it, he check the ignition wires and the third one wasnt gettin much spark so he said it could be fuel injector or ignition wires is bad or cylinder.

Okay here is the deal. Found Out I bent My vaules. the shop say it would cost me 1100 to fixed. I would get two new vaules and a new gasket so u think 1100 is over priced or is it just right. If was to do it myself for a guy who never really never fixed his engine would it be that hard?
