(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sad.gif)
so i decided to change my oil. the car was running fine, very strong, before i attempted anything i got an oil filter cap wrench and a strap wrench to get it out. i got the old filter out and replaced it with a bosch 3402 i tightened it well, maybe too well. filled it with oil to max line, no more. then i started it and i found my oil light to be on so i shut it down. i checked my oil and it was reading empty. what the hell? i just filled it! so i look under the car... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sad.gif) ...and find that the car had puked all of the oil out from somwhere around the oil filter. so i take the filter out and put a new one in and fill it again. i didnt start it right away i changed my brake pads and went and got more brake fluid and fast orange(that stuff is the work of god) so then i started it again and it puked all the oil out again (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sad.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sad.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sad.gif) oil came out from the same general area. all of it... again it was a bosch 3402 so what is going on? did i break anything? is the bosch 3402 the correct oil filter? did i break or lose a seal? how can i fix my car so that it will run, for the first time in about a week? please please if anyone has any information please help. id like to have it running for tomorrow night so i can go on a date with my girlfriend in the 72 914 as opposed to the lincon continental(the boat that dosent handle at all) anyone have any ideas? |
