After having some head gasket problems. I decided to go ahead and try to change it.to my despair, both the intake and exhaust bolts were not able to be removed as they had no more meat to grab on. I decided to not do the job and just put it all back together. When I went to go start the car, it would no longer start. The only issue that I can find that might be wrong, is that when I was removing the alternator ground, I forgot to unplug the battery and a spark came out. Now the car will crank, but it will not fully start.

This seems to be fuel pressure squirting out from the fuel line hose.
Tomorrow I will check for spark and compression. I did not remove the timing belt, so I doubt that this would be a compression issue.

I also checked the main battery fuse, ECU fuse, ignition fuse and alternator fuse, and they are all fine.

Also when the car cranks the tachometer and speedometer jump around a lot .

I really need help. Thanks in advance.
