2001 ford focus multiple leaks
Asked by Darklighter17 Oct 16, 2019 at 08:44 PM about the 2001 Ford Focus SE
Question type: Maintenance & Repair
Hello, so i started my 2001 Ford Focus
up earlier, it made a very loud crunching
noise and blew up. It won't start now.
All of the antifreeze and engine oil
leaked out and there was a few pieces
of metal in the puddle. Can somebody
please tell me what I might need to do
to repair this? What could've
happened? I'm thinking its the oil pan
that busted, but why would the
antifreeze leak out also?
Thanks in advance!

It might also be a cracked head gasket... im not entirely sure.
Probably threw a rod. Time for a new engine as yours probably cannot be rebuilt. I would probably scrap the car as the cost to fix will be 3x what the car is worth running.

Crap. Well i literally just bought this car not even a month ago. So bad engine now then?

Alrighty. Sounds like its just gonna have to get junked. I spent $700 to buy it 3 weeks ago. Total loss it seems, where are decent places to scrap cars?
