answered about a year ago

smell the oil if it smells like gas That is why we call that yellow light on the dash the idiot light! my 1st bet is that you washed out the bottom end by ignoring the repairs needed and have seized the engine . i hope im wrong but thats why they have the nickname Ford Exploder
