> [@BREETIME](#): > > id do a water flush if i were you… Yes a water flush is you best bet…Plug the hole in the oil pan with a peice of small metal and jb weld. Then fill the motor up with water (the same way you would oil) start it up and run it for a few minutes. This will insure that all your bearings are spun…After you are done with this. Fine a rope, a tree, and a chair… If you are still around after that. I really dont know how else to help you. ---

I had a friend with an old Subaru Loyale beater. He ran it completely out of oil, which he didn’t know until he investigated why his car was extremely loud. That thing ran for years after that, and it may even still be around if it hasn’t rusted out. If it’s an old-ass Civic, just fix it and dump some oil in and hope for the best. (but for the love of god park the thing until you fix the oil pan) ---

buy a new oil pan, those motors are fairly sturdy. Do it asap though so its not sitting without oil in it. It should be ok. ---

I’ve seen a Honda run for at least a couple hours on residue. Those motors can take a lot of abuse. ---

hey biff, the water flush is when you leave the plug out, and let water find its way through the motor, then fill it up and start it. i would suggest going to wal-mart and buying a mongoose. ---

I just let my 2stroke motor run out of oil and eventually throw a quart or two into it. Saves on the cost of oil changes. I highly recommend it. Take all the money you save from paying someone to change your oil, and invest in a sick BOV exhaust tip. Or whistler. Word. ---
