Some engine problems
 
Ok so yestruday I rev'd my engine and coolant blew all over the place. Found the busted hose. But now it idles really hard, and when I give it gas it bogs and churns. The CEL is blinking. Is this a dead engine? A blown rotor? Or just some limp mode or something else. Any ideas would be helpful.

Thanks,

blinking check engine light would indicate the limp mode is active.

How do I reset the ECU to take it out of limp mode?

Two ways to get out of limp mode:

1. 100mg of Viagra should do the trick for you.

2. Disconnect battery for a couple of hours of Viagra doesn't work.
