Also when this originally happend I tried to push start/pop start and upon releasing the clutch, with plenty of speed, the engine couldn't go and wen I let the clutch out it was kinda like slamming the ebrake. Sign of seized engine?

yeah, seized up. Sounding more and more like you will have to pull the motor. It must have gotten very full of water.

You probably have internal damage at this point.

I hear many people talking about seafoam deep creep, marvels mystery oil, that these things, for lack of a better word, cure a seized engine. Idk if you guys have had any experience with these things in the past
