Ok i have a 93 honda civic si. with i/h/e, my cars check engine light was on this morning, and later this afternoon my oil light came on, i havent changed the oil in a year i know i should have but i didnt put very many mile on it, i only put on 1000 in a year! Then my cars idle was really high, alot higher thsn usual, and it sounded horrible, i started to drive up the street and my car died, i started it again i drove home and it died again, i know i need oil, but is something seriously wrong with my car? Please any info will help.

similar thing happened to me (the oil leaked so i was running on NO oil for a couple days) it started making this noise when i rev'd over 3,000RPM and it ran like shit and it would die out on me if i pushed it. Soon enough something just "popped" inside the engine and it wouldnt cut on anymore, i took it the shop and the repairs were something around 300$. I'm not saying that thats your problem but i DO know that running a car with little to no oil WILL have serious effects in your car.

The lesson to be learned here is very obvious: check your oil, and change it every 5,000-10,000 km. (depends on the year model your car is). Running with little to no oil, or not having a regular oil change, will have serious consequences on your car.

well it would be like 3000 miles here in the US... anyways, if you let it sit there for a year or w/e, its really not good. Have you checked your CEL's to see what they are??

Did you even check to see if you still had any oil?

The is oil is on the full mark. I have check it regualarly. I was going to have it changed this week when it started doing this.

When I start the car the engine revs at a high rpm. Could there be fuel in the oil. Taking it to a mechanic tomorrow

Thanks
