So then after that I put oil in it and well the other day i was switching out my spark plugs and i saw a littlebit oil in the coil packs so... i was like double you tee eff mayte.... anywayz for some reason everytime i drive my car it leaks about a quart of oil every day and i've atleast spent about 100 dollars on oil already just to keep it running to get to work... so heres the list of problems...
1. black smoke comes out of my exhaust...
2. a little bit oil on my coil packs
3. 4th cylinder spark plug is black and all the others are good and compression test is 250 on all
4. its leaking oil but i dont know from where...

:p lunge:

dunno why that icon's so hilarious to me. get ur valves adjusted and check under ur car an hour after you park. if its leaking oil, it should end up on the ground.
u might be right about ur valves too but did u beat on the car or what happened when it started....i never had that problem and i race my **** all the time u should just take it to get checked out by a pro cuz u might just need new gaskets or something its an s2k man dont be cheap u noe
well it kinda looks like it i put my hand in the way and my hand turns out to be all black with little drops of black liquid... and well sometimes i smell the exhaust and it smells like something is burnt like if 2 wires were to touch and that smell of burnt or what ever

The first thing you need to do is find the oil leak. Spray the motor down with brake cleaner, then drive it and find the oil leak. Then move on to the next problem. It sounds like your trying to fix 3 problems without knowing what your looking for...
did you replace the valve cover gasket and spark plug gaskets? or use the old ones?
AP1 run pig rich...smoke is a lil common.
a lot of variables...it can be anything from bad cam seal or bad valve and stem seal.

is your plug on #4 cylinder black from oil? if so was it a lot? that can be a bad sign or could also just be a bad or incorrectly installed spark plug seal (it seems so). but you mentioned leaking or burning oil. it's possible that you have a bad valve seal. bad valve seals would be smoking on startup after the car has sat for a while, smoking after idling then driving, ect.
also its possible the clicking could be your TCT also which is common and cheap to fix.
you should take it to a mechanic or have some with experience look at it. you seem to have a plethora of problems with the car.

damn dude take ur **** to the shop and get it fixed/sell it. first off if you got oil in ur coil packs ur spark plug seals are ****ed prolly due to you or who ever installed the vc back on not being carefull. And yea i would deff adj the valves how the **** are you going to change a valve and then not set anything back to spec. but the valve adj will have nothing to do with ur oil consuption.
