ok this is a run off on another post i have...
heres a link to the previous thread to help caught you up to help me... THANKS!!

ok so i cleaned the oil off from under my block the best i could the other day... but the past few days its been raining till today.. so i figured i start her up and let her warm up and get under it to see if i could pin point where the oil was mostly coming from.... BUT my car wont start... it just cranks... cranks.... and cranks... some little hiccups every once and a while.. Fuel pressure was 40... (do able) but turned it down to 38 just cause thats where i want it haha!

But anyways.. WHAT Is going on with my life????
I get it started then i get pulled over for no tags... i get tags then the CAS pops off while drive.. fix that then i find a huge oil leak... get closer to where the oil is coming from and now she DOESNT START!!

I HATE MY LIFE... my luck is never on my side!!!
 
brand new ngk plugs... and the cas is all good i drove it for a day and some till i say this huge oil leak so i parked her cleaned what i could of all the oil under my car... today went to start it and see where the oil was coming from and its only cranking!
It worked FINE all week!
