also check the serpentine belt, it goes from the engine dynomometer, to the AC, to the compression, to the power steering, to the altanater, then to the fan clutch, if it is broken then you need to replace it.

Oil on the manifold indicates a serious problem.

You need to shut the car off immediately.

Make sure to fill it back up with oil until it starts dribbling back out of the fill hole.

Odds are that the front engine mount is broken. I'd check the adjustment for the rear shoes first, before running any compression tests.

You may have to buy a new Sparco seat shifter and Motec system exhaust.

Sounds like fluid from the headlights all over the place. Have you checked it lately?
once the sensor sees a low HF (HeadlightFluid) the car shuts down to prevent damage.

You might want to make sure the belt didnt break causing you to bend a valve. If that happened you would be really ****ed and might as well get a k series or gsr engine

ok i spoke to green on the phone and he had the car towed to a shop. they said he blew out the welds on his intake manifold. that explains the oil.
