Well it blew and i was driving but did not notice till i got home and parked and saw a trail of oil for about 2 blocks when i got home and parked the buzzer turned on i was like WTF stoped turned off the car and checked the oil it was bone dry. and a puddel of oil under. the car turns on and sounds fine but im worried what could have happened or did i cacth it in time?

 

Well, can't do much now... just refill and hope for the best

 

Fix the hose, slam some oil in it, and keep driving it. Should be ok, Mike ran the racecar out of oil once on Thunderhill raceway. We put fresh oil in it and ran HPDE Group 4, PS1 heats, and the enduro.

 

i drove 20 miles once WITHOUT oil in my 88 tii. she turned out fine

 

But when you go to get a rebuild, things wont be just fine. You will be lucky if some of the bearings havent seized up.



Order yourself some Corksport SS oil lines spend the time to put them on and be carefull for awhile, if everything seems okay, continue to drive like you normally would.

 

you ever see those commercials where the cars are drained of oil and then ran for long periods of time before seizing?



i hope thats true. cuz the same **** that happened to you happenned to me about a month ago, the car is fine, and there were no flakes or shavings in my oil change or filter (yeah check for those, if you find some, that means bye bye bearings)

 

yeah i got to turn 6 and the motor was fine, it came apart later and the bearings were fine too. granted paulie broke EVERYTHING else but hey it didnt starve for oil
