Question AnYoNe, PlEaSe HeLp!!!!!!

i have a 1990 chevy camaro rs. i just bought it from the original owner three weeks ago. the car had 89,000 miles on it. The engine seized up on me while i was driving. it cut off without with no noise. it will not turn over no matter what i do. i found out that the oil was leaking and the light never came on. the problem i have now is what to do next. rebuild the engine, get a new one, what have you. i have also heard of a thing called marvel mystery oil. in which you pour on the spark plugs and let sit overnight. has anyone tried this? does it work? please write back and help me out. thank you

I dont understand what pouring something on the sparkplugs will do if your engine is locked up.

Maby if you put it in the sparkplug hole, I can understand that.

Now is the perfect time to rebuild your engine as you will never be able to trust that engine again......... You may play with it and get it started, but if it seized for any reason, especially for low oil.......... The motor is a ticking bomb!!!!!

Hey bud,
Is there oil in your motor? If so.How Much? Make sure that your engine is locked up before you do anything drematic. If you do decide to rebuild or replace your motor i would (first thing) get rid of that TPI piece. you would be much happier with a carburated 350 or an LT1. Takereasy.
