whats going on confused
i have done some searches and cant come up with anything. my car sat for 3 days in the cold went to start it up nothing. tried to unflood maybe thinking thats a possibility. when i pulled the plugs they were wet. i dryed them off pulled the fuel pump fuse and cranked it over grey smoke came out off the sprak plug holes. did this about 3 times then put the plugs back in. car didnt start. tried to push start it nothing. after moving the car i noticed a puddle off gas mixed with oil and maybe som coolant. it looks like it is comming from the passenger side to the right off the oil pan up there somewhere. what could this mean and did i wait long enough for the fuel to dry or do i have to leave it over night?
thanks for the help it will be greatly appreciated

How many miles on the engine? Was it smoking when you shut it off last? Ever overheat? Left it out in the cold for 3 days in California, you don't know what cold is.... I've been starting mine in 30 degree temps all week with no problems.
WTF!
My car just did the EXACT same thing, but has been sitting in my garage for a week. I haven't tried to start the car yet because I am worried the oil leak is coming from an OMP line and I want my apex seals to be happy. Was yours a pretty big puddle? Mine was about a square foot. I think mine was coming from inside the exhaust manifold through the gaskets that hold the turbine housings to the manifold, which is really weird,

i just changed the plugs about 2 weeks ago. just checked the oil and it smells like gas is in iti am going to do an oil change tom. i read that maybe there is to much oil in the gas and could cause it not to start? the puddle was about the size of a dollar. never overheated and only alittle smoke on start up for about 20 sec. i was thinking of changing the oil, drying off the spark pluga again, pulling the fuel pump fuse by the battery and cranking it acouple of times to get teh extra gas out, also going to try and spray atf in the spark plug holes(is this right?)
thanks again
