posting for a freind of mine...
He was racing a newer mustang andin 5th gear when the car shuttered her heard a pop and has smoke everywhere. pulled over immidiately and oil was everywhere. no oil left in car and did not drive it anywhere else. what could have happend?

 

ne body?

 

oil line blew up? oil cooler got a hole in it?

edit: you won, right? you can only blow up your car in a race if you win (just like me, i may have run ~130 deg celcius but i beat that celica)

 

sounds like it threw a rod

 

What did the oil come out of? Oil pan, oil cooler, metering oil pump? Put oil in it and see where it drains out at.

 

It's a good idea to wait a bit longer than 10 minutes for a reply. And be more detailed, we can't help you with something as vague as that. That's like going to a doctor and saying "I've got a pain" and expecting him to know what you're talking about and diagnose it with only that.

 

 

lol i know. he lives in pennsylvania and im in VA. he called me almost in tears...and no, he lost but he was "catching up" im like....dude......it was a stock 02 stang 6yl AT. weak sauce.

 

hey i'm a new member with the 1991 rx-7 that blew up and the oil went all over the place. i did look and all i can see is oil all over the oe part of the engine and the body. i'm not a mechanically inclined person all i do to a car is drive it and look good. i need help what can i do?

 

Figure out where the coils coming from. 'blew' up is a pretty bad term, unless that engine exploded and flames went flying everywhere, blew up is a BAD description. You have to figure out where the oils coming from, what it's doing, what lead up to it happening, and so forth. It's not rocket science (not that that's difficult either)

 

thanks for rubbing it in sonic but i'll try that thanks for the advice. what do you think could have happend?

 

it's a shame i did this over a stripper...lol

 

yeah cliff a stripper who was prolly blonde and sucked at driving.....lol ill stop, im being an *** lol. ::chuckles:: dont worry man you know my car story... at least i beat the porche. (had a 240sx modded and ran a chick in a porche 944 turbo. beat her....then blew up my motor... well, broke my timing chain buuuut yeah. now my cars faster and ill have her back soon. sr20det swap.. woot woot)

 

howard you smart *** i wasn't racing her i was catching up to her to see the goods man and she took off so i downshifted and my car broke damn strippers they take your money and break your toys.........but they are so fine

 

I hear you there... but sheit, why do they ALL drive mustangs??? Thats the real question.

I think you could've blown an oil cooler line or the cooler, that is usually the first to blow when you have high oil pressure (over 60psi). Cheap oil filters can blow also. Fram's are good to about 80PSI... LOL. Check for signs of gaskets or blown seals sticking out around the oil pan or engine. If you REALLY can't see where its comming from, spray off all the oil/grime and see where it seeps out again. I'm thinking oil cooler lines though... mine are leaky also..

Likely scenarios: Oil filter pedistal o-rings, OMP lines, OMP itself, Oil cooler lines, oil cooler, blown front main seal.

 

if you guys remember the show "married with children" the v6 mustang convert was called a testica 2000. hehe. i thought i blew up my car, pouring what looked like oil all over the ground and woulldnt start. turned out the fuel line blew off was spraying fuel all over the oil pan and making the gunk drip on the ground.
