I had an oil leak from the engine valve cover gasket that took me months to identify. i replaced the engine valve cover, gasket, all 4 spark plugs, the coil pack and started using fuel injector cleaner as well as Lucas with high mileage oil. I kept throwing a cylinder 4 misfire, and then my ignition coil codes. The car started to struggle to accelerate and then rough idle. Until it started to shake, and then eventually stopped. It struggles to turn over, when it does only after flooding the engine, it rattles and rough idles until it quickly backfires and shuts off. I have been losing fuel efficiency and oil pressure life rapidly. The car has never overheated, and the oil isn’t mixed. Cylinders one and two read zero compression while three and four read 165. No blown fuses but after it cut off the MAF, MAP, EGC, and TP codes all popped up. I’m at a complete loss on what to do from here. The shops are all booked out in advance and i cannot get anyone to actually help diagnose what i should do next.
