If it's turning over fast, there's a chance you've dilluted your oil enough to reduce compression. Check the oil level and aroma.

As for your rich running condition, I'd suspect the coolant temp sensor. On an LH-2.4 car, assuming you can keep the car running, you may see the MIL lit and the stored code would be 1-2-3.
