Hi everyone couple days ago washed my car (2008 3.6 with 110k Milage) Only problem with my car the low oil pressure warning coming and going away however no power loss no leak no nothing also oil pressure sensor was changed recently. Anyways after the wash made some quick start and stops to move the car right after car suddenly died. tried to start couple time started and stalled again. I did wait till the morning it was same couldn't start. After many tries got it started but when I remove my foot from the gas pedal car died again. It's been 2 days can't start it since. First thought it can be bad gasoline because I changed the gas pump filter a month ago there was a crack on it. While replacing there were some dirty gas in the tank. Tank was in the middle didn't mind and filled up car was running normally since then. Had this idea maybe dirty gas went and clogged the injection. I checked the fuel lines and air filter battery and fuses all seems okay except one suspicious one main relay 614 shows 48ohm when I test it does click however when I connect it to the 12v battery and checked the resistance showed 0 ohm. I sent the videos to a mechanic they said oil pump gone and engine couldn't oiled it self so engine needs to rebuild. I am away from the city and living off grid have no other vehicle that's why situation harder. Thinking about by passing the main relay with a cable but I don't want to burn the ECU also. Getting a new relay will take time except someone brings it over. Can anyone give idea if it is safe to jump by pass the main relay. Is this car really sounds like needs a rebuild? Thanks already would appreciate to any comment.
