Been driving with NO oil!
In short, I've been driving with no oil for like a week and a half. The car was making a clacking sound, which I think is the piston (sounds like only one piston) because it gets faster as I accelerate. The car now stalls and the clacking gets very aggresive before it stalls, like as if somethng were falling off the engine. It's a 95 grand am. i put 3 quarts of oil in it and it barely drove for 2 days. Now the car is not drivable, it will stall, the clacking is at its worst. Is this car done? Should I have it towed to Pep Boys?
Thanks |

Re: Been driving with NO oil!
OUCH!
Piston slap/ Rod & main bearings and valve train are probably all trash.Oil is cheap so why was the car driven in this condition to begin with? Also, idiot lights are highly unreliable so a simple oil pressure gauge (under $15) is cheap insurance against this happening again. |
