Tried again, maybe it's like this 1 and 2 then 1 and 1 then 5 and 5. That would mean 12, 11 and 55. 11 points to CPS sensor which I have already replaced. Gonna disconnect the battery and try again.

Deff clear and try again then...codes would come from smallest to biggest 11,12 then 55
I fixed it!!! Hahaha, it was a damn coil wire. Had a small tear, inspected closer and it turns out to be old and brittle. Replaced with new one had laying around garage, good to go! I guess it helps to do a visual inspection myself first before shotgun troubleshooting sensors and such.

Pull the coil wire from the distributor cap and shove a spark plug in the end. Lay it on something that will ground the plug base,(a jumper cable works well to help insure a good connection). Have someone help you with cranking over the engine and watching the plug. If it turns out that you have good,strong spark,without skipping any beats, then water in your fuel may be possible.
