Thanks guys! I dis get the recall done for the fuel pump pipe. That was the first I did when getting the car. So all recalls that are available have been done

Itestes my fuel pump and got just under 60psi as I read on the forum here that's normal pressure


I don't think fuel is the issue since my plugs are being fouled out by oil I will try the ESS procedures you guys mentioned thanks!

Alright guys I got an update for you all. I disconnected the battery for about 15 minutes. And then additionally after hooking everything up I did the 20 brake pedal press but did not see the oil guage move like mentioned in the procedure. So not sure if that was done right.

The car did the same thing since the spark plugs were cleaned and started up and went to 2k idle and died. My check engine light is flashing now. Looks like ima have to get an obd reader to see what codes might be thrown.

Also some interesting developments I disconnected both eletrocal connectors for the oil pump and tried starting it after cleaning the plugs again and the car still started but died the same way however now when I pulled the trailing plugs I don't see near as much oil in the spark plugs!! Its still not running tho so... That's sucks lol that still may not be the definate issue. I think it's one of them tho.

The check engine light flashes if you leave the car in ON without starting for too long. That's not significant.

The OMP does not physically deliver enough oil to cause what you are seeing here. If it did you oil would be all gone in 1000 miles. Also it works on both rotors equally and cannot do otherwise. You're only flooding out rotor 1 right?

I'll repeat my earlier thinking :as soon as main oil pressure picks up, a second or two after the car starts, oil floods past the oil control rings and floods the engine.

No both rotors are flooding with oil. Which might be a good sign since the rings on the rotor are most likely good.

Now maybe it's a normal amount of oil. If so that's a crap ton of oil lol. And tour right if that was he case I'd be out of oil in 1,000 miles but since the car can't even stay running I don't have to worry about that lol.

It's strange that when I clean the plugs it starts up but then it won't start up again after that. Until I clean the plugs again.

It's not really strange, spark plugs full of oil don't create spark. That's why it dies and won't restart.
I'm not sure if I was clear above but that's not a normal amount of oil. The OMP is not capable of injecting the amount you see there.
