Ran Engine With No Oil
To make a long story short, my husband went 4,000
miles past the recommended mileage for an oil
change. We were on he expressway going about 70
when the engine started to make a knocking noise,
and about 5 minutes later he could no longer
accelerate. About 2 miles of coasting, the entire car
shut off. He tried to turn the key once while waiting
for the tow truck and it almost started but then it
sounded like fireworks going off in the engine. We
haven’t messed with it since, but I know that the
problem is the fact that he ran the engine dry. Is
there anything I can do to try to salvage the engine
before I junk it?
