uh oh, how long..

can you run a car with out oil? I went off roading in the civ and punched a hole in the oil pan and ran it out of oil. I didn’t notice until it was clapping pretty loud I looked and noticed the oil light was on. :frowning: I hope its not ruined. It wasn’t knocking yet, but it sounded like the whole motor was just mechanically loud. All in all i would say it was run for about 3 minutes around 3k RPM. Is my car fuct?

Just to clarify you were off roading in civic?

hahahaha. thats all i have to say.

yep, may still run but its fucked

Told ya so

id do a water flush if i were you…

civics can actually take a lot of abuse, but I wouldn’t expect it to last much longer, get a new oil pan and fill her up, see what happens lol.

huh? what is that?

it still runs but i know it was run with no oil in it.

I haven’t had oil in my car for almost a week. You should be fine if it was only 3 minutes.

WTF does Isac Newton have to do with this thread?

Actually, I think one of Newton’s laws fits this thread better.

so do you need a motor? Ive got a cheap beater d15b2 short block

or a really nice d16a6 with low miles. the prices obviously vary.

:eekdance:

Not yet. I’ll let u know though, thanx. :tup: Atleast there’s one stand up guy on this board that’s trying to help and not just spewing sarcasm.

Just Karter FTW. Thanx buddy. :grouphug:

put a new pan on it and fill it with oil, I bet its still fineI’ve changed my oil and had about 1/2 a quart come out and le cackord is still running. do work son

lol good luck. It may not be totally fucked but the odds aren’t in your favor. Life lessons suck don’t they?

12,000 miles
