low compression and misfire on Cyl 5

I just got my jeep a week ago. And it ran good other than a lifter tick. I decided to put in new plugs, wires, cap, and rotor. I ended up having to put in a new distributor because one of the tabs for the cap to screw to broke off. and after i finally figured out how to put the new distributor in and get it running again it blew smoke and had low compression on cyl 5 about 30. not sure whats bad half tempted to pull the motor and rebuild it.
