Duel Q thread; oil in intake. long read.

"i have starting problems, werid right?
sparkplugs changed, coils are all new, new starter, new switch, newish fuel filter, ohmed the front 3 injectors.
time to check my crank sensors- CPS and POS for metal shavings right?
i pulled whichever one was on the timing cover off and cleaned it, no shavings at all almost.
since the FSM's are down can anybody show me pics of both and proper ohm ratings? searched a bit and most threads just say to do it, no pics or specs.

also any other ideas for start-ups that fail and they sound like the motor hacking a bit, there's always a puff of exhaust out my tailpipe when it happens and a powerful smell of gas.
it cranks once, then a labored crank, followed by a sound of metal grinding, but also slightly electronic noise, its really werid and every time it happens it gets worse and worse.
its usually 3 out of 4 starts.

203*** miles, manual, used 96 auto starter(works fine for 2 months so far) 1997.mods at bottom of sig."

hooked up my IACV plate and everthing is in working order, except the idle, which is still at 1.5k...

bump for irritation.
could really use those pics, or any input on the oil in UIM or the grinding start, i can figure out my idle problem by myself eventually.

Bump, how has nobody even flammed me for this?

No vac leaks,
but new update, when i unplug my IACV my idle doesnt change, is it busted? i have a code for a IACV malfunction but im not sure how to deal with it, search had nothing on the subject that i could find in 3 pages.
and still have the terrible starts, takes 20 seconds or more of grinding, putting, and stalls repeatedly.
