Redo the compression test, pull all the plugs out, pedal to the floor, and make sure the battery is fully charged.

Angry &*^&*^

Well I have had it! After all this two more things! Here in Atlanta we have had thunder storms for the past 2 days! Parking lots flooded all over town well my oil light came on and I saw the needle fall in 10 sec doing 25 on the road in the rain so I had to park it and call a ride. I pop the hood and what do I see the Top opening of radiator broke off inside hose also the oil is pouring out in the area by the filter I can’t tell exactly where yet cuz my car is sitting in about 4 inches of water. I saw this happen with the last eng I was the braided hose to the oil line! waiting on the rain to stop to take a look! cant be that bad.

If you have a cold air intake, you hydro locked it for sure. Was the air filter wet?
