while driving the engine started to shake. Came home and notice that one of the spark plug wire had pop off the engine I tried to put it back one and the car won't start. I notice that there is oil on the wire where you connect to the spark plug.

Hi alexacuna and TY for the donation

The valve cover gasket on that side could be leaking down to the sparkplug hole and shorting out that cylinder or cylinders-inspect

Either its loose connection on the wire to plug or its leaking compression thru the plug due to not being torque properly or the plug well is crossthreaded out bcuz improper installation of the spark plug.

Try torquing it down to 13ft lbs
