Re: Help!!!

If your oil pressure light came on, you have issues. Save yourself the trouble of a compression test.

Drain the oil. Metal chunks=your engine is done. No metal chunks, change the oil, as the oil light comes on when its very low oil pressure. Then proceed to try to turn the engine over for a compression test.

Anything else disconnected? Does the engine crank over strongly? Any noises when cranking?

Very good chance you destroyed the lower end, reason it doesn't start is a munched crankshaft sensor.
