ive got oil issues *help me*

Post by MRtuningCO »

ok long story short...

i went to work today, noticed car was overheating when i got there. look under car to see that oil is basically spewing out with the motor shut off. coolant was OK.

drove it to pep boys to get oil, put some in and it comes out just as fast as i can put it in. car temp went down to normal. drove home and had to put 1qrt of oil in every 5 miles. just as im about to pull into my driveway the oil light comes on.

pull it into garage and notice oil is dripping from back of oil pan. i take the pan off and its COMPLETELY FULL OF OIL! why am i getting a low pressure light with full oil? why is it overheating?


why? why? why?

Oil pump is broke I bet. Or there's a tube that's clogged.
