What happened? Blow the head gasket? I've replaced them before, but it is a real pain.......
My one old pickup spits oil out of the carburetor, because the rings are so worn out that it has so much blowby, lol. And leaks it out of the intake manifold somewhere. I've been driving it that way as a farm vehicle, just waiting for it to throw a rod or something else major so I can junk it, but I keep taking care of it, and it just keeps going..... Not going very fast (no compression anymore), but still going. Lol.
Anyway, sorry to hear about your troubles. It's always frustrating and expensive when motors blow up. :/ I hope you can get it sorted out without too much headache.
I'd loan you one of my junkers in the meantime, but well, you know, other side of the world and all. XD
I mean, it's not like I am wealthy enough to afford two (or even one lol) nice vehicle, it's just that I paid $300 for the one that spits oil, 7 or 8 years ago, so I just keep the two junkers around so I have something to drive while the other one is broken down. :3
