Default Not good

Ok guys, i have been expeirenceing some surging going so i thought i would regap my spark plugs and see if that would help. Im on the sec coil pack and i drop a lil rubber o ring down there, im like oh man. So i get some ducktape on a rod and tried to fish it out, next thing i know theres a lil piece of duct down in there laying on the cynlinder head, im like, this is not good. So try to get it out and do get a lil of the rubber but it burnt up cuz the motor was still hot. So next i try to blow the lil peice of duct tape up through but i got nothing. So I cleaned the top of the cynlinder as best i could and hope it would some how shoot out into the exhaust, i so i finish all up and fired it up, a lil clicking at the beginning for about 5 secs and now it sounds normal, so im sure what happen to it, what do u guys think?

Wow....what a bad sequence of events.

Hopefully both items burnt up and went out the exhaust but its never good to have something like that happen. They could possible get stuck in a valve or in the cat. which wouldn't be good.
