ecksjay Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 have you repaired the pipe, topped up the oil and started the motor?you may have got lucky mate, providing it didn't run empty. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

StarletRick Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 starving the oil will cause many many problems. it depends how quick you got it. put oil in and start it up. what have you got to lose? if you need an engine rebuild, it doenst matter how much damage is being done.

Spoonz Posted May 7, 2008 Author Share Posted May 7, 2008 well soon has i heard the tapping noise u get with low oil i paniced and just stall was avout 2 seconds long guess your right rick grrrr engine rebuild is the last thing i need right now Quote Link to post Share on other sites
StarletRick Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 the only way to check bearing damage is to strip them out. just fill it up. and start it . if its fucked youll know about it and eitherway youll have to rebuild it mate. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
