well i have looked and looked and can't find the problem with my car so I am going to finish replacing the parts that i know are bad (just a knock sensor at this point) and then take it to a dealer and pay them to tell me why my car wont start... i am interested to find out what they have to say since this all started with a simple belt change

PS, AC and Alt... there is a long thread i authored detailing what happened and what i've tried, but basiclly i can only start my car while giving it gas, the moment i stop it dies and while running it spits liquid out of the exhaust (which appears to be oil)

actually i kept it running for about 2 minutes by keeping my foot on the gas and thoose flecks of liquid became a constant stream of blueish smoke

isv still seems to work.. and i've double checked the vacuum lines... i've looked this thing up and down and the only thing i notice that is diffrent is 3 new belts and a new preheater hose.
