One day about a month after I had timing belt/water pump work done, I was driving and my engine just died and hasn't started since. Here is what I have done since I towed it home in chronological order. 1. Just tried starting it. 2. Tried starting it with starter fluid (it hit a little with that). That made me think it wasn't getting fuel. 3. I did some other test and determined that my fuel pump was bad, so I changed it my self. It still did not start (not hitting at all ) but just cranking it there now was a new sound. It sounded like metal hittting something (something along those lines anyway). The sound is in time with the engine turning over. 5. Today I decided to take a glance under the front valve cover. I found that the spark plugs are covered with oil. I cleaned them and the ignition coils and still no start. Also my key fob broke off the key at some point. Idk if it's related or not.
