I loved this car, just bought it. Put a lot of work into it.
I noticed oil pressure at 2marks going down highway 4th gear at 70mph yesterday, thought it was odd. But I had been under car and saw no oil leaks,
Today on way home, heard horrible rotational rattling sound from engine compartment, ;something was striking something. Thought it was loose exhaust.
Suddenly hear something pop and drop from engine compartment, which i ran over and then engine shut down.
Oil puddle underneath car when I pulled over on highway.Small fireball explosion from oil or diesel. No oil in crnakcase.
Broken meatl fragments from something underneath fuel pump.
ENGINE SIEZED. Won't turnover. I cant believe this. No oil in pan, can anything be done? %&*(()))@$% Heartbroken.
