so i tried cranking the engine without plugs, dried everthing, cleaned everything with carb cleaner, and reset the ECU, theengine still idles rough and shuts off after 1 minute. the check engine light is still on and a shiet load of carbon is still shooting out of the exhaust..there is a guggling sound and the engine shakes vigorously. im gonna do a compression test and engine diagnostics. i called ROB and he said that it might be a bent rod. but won't a bent rod not allow the engine to start at all??

yeah man.. that bypass i sold it to you at 50% off, its was originally $40. hopefully you don't run into the same problem. i dropped it off at the dealer and they are gonna pump out the engine and rinse it down with some chemical. its starting to idle fine, but only time will tel if i have any long term damages.
