Well I'll try and be helpful. First check your oil if it looks like chocolate milk you toasted the head gasket. The ticking is probably your rods knocking probably need new bearings what's your oil pressure at. And last your motor is not a v6 it's a inline 6.

Moved to OEM tech.

Sounds like maybe you ran it out of oil.
