Update: Got home and looked at the car. Bad ticking noise probably due to the following condition; Pulled a spark plug and its covered in raw gas and oil. Pulled the dipstick, wasnt milky but the oil was thin and reaked of gasoline. the exhaust doesnt smell like coolant or oil, just like raw gas, yet it burns white. The car is also only achieveing 7mpg and it is stock except for a catback. Any idea? The coolant level is fine and isnt burned or anything and the car doesnt overheat.
You can hear the stock electric fuel pump inside the car buzzing away too. The car is also missing.
I think its a bad fuel pressure regulator...Any opinions?

Gonna test the regulator friday. pull the vaccuum line off the reg and if i smell gas or its dripping out then its bad right? then pressurize the system and clamp off the return line. If pressure holds then its a bad reg? If it doesnt hold then i have leaky injectors?
