Once we get the car all back togather, I start it up. Heres the problem...... The car puked out ALL of its oil. I ask my buddy if he had replaced any gaskets he took out, and he don't remember if there were any. If any of you had to replace your starters, Can you please give me some insight to this? Im going to take the cooler off the car again tomorrow and try to figure out the problem.

Thanks

I have a 1992 Z-34 Lumina and removed & reinstalled the oil cooler and starter without any problems. Sounds like the oil cooler center connector isn't properly tightened or the gasket on the oil cooler is missing.
