I am not sure what gulky means; however, I feel that it is not in the intended design of this engine. There are a few explanations for this, but suffice it to say, your engine is not long for this world.
It may be in your best interest to have the oil pan removed and have the gulky substance analyzed. If glycol (ethylene, or propylene) is found, a leaking head gasket/head/block is afoot.
If plain water is found, suspect you need more friends, or at least friends who live farther away so you can drive long enough to warm up the oil to greater than 212 degrees to boil off any moisture.
If none of the above is found, you need a better life coach who can help you organize your life and make sure you change your oil more regularly.

the filter should be a cartridge type located underneath the enginecover plastic.it is usually on the right side of engine bay near the front of car.It will have a black plastic hex on the housing it is 1"and a quarter big and probably has a torque spec written on it something like 18 n-m or something.Hope it helps.

The remote won't ework because the problem is in the vehicle. Just for test purposes and possible remedy. Remove and clean the negative battery cable. Ensure a clean , tight connection. Then find the body ground. Yhis ground is locted usually at the top rear of the engine. .I's a snall stainless steel strap bolted to the engine and fire wall, This must olsobe clean with a good contack. Might as well clean the + cable and connection on the battery while you are there. Good luck and keep me posted olease. Good Luck, Ned_
