URGENT oil pressure stop engine

<< < (5/170) > >>

Pesky jones:
Now I'm worried about the possibility the engine has seized.

When I tried turning it back on, it just made a whirring noise and the RPM needle only went to about 300 rpm and refused to kick into life. Could it really happen that quickly? With me driving a total of around 500 yards (including the engine being turned off and on again) from seeing the warning light...

r5gtt:
from what you're saying that whirring could relate to the low oil pressure so try the cheapest option first.  oil pick up pipe fresh oil of course and go from there.

dazza:
Oil pickup pipe is not to difficult you will need a long ball head allen key as a couple of the bolts are awkward.

The three bolts in between the bell housing will be the awkward ones  :signLOL:
