+1 on that. You most likely will be needing a full long block, as Homemade stated due to the cam journals.

Yeah...I remember your call...but you never mentioned that you wanted to put Uncle Scotty's Cocktail in your engine! Uncle Scotty's mix, or any 75W90 does work great....in the tranny!

...and BTW...NO warranty will cover an engine that has had improper maintenance...like gear lube in the engine.

I think you have an appointment this week right?

 

im just wondering what the guy thought you were doing with 5 QTs of gearoil when you bought it at the counter.... this could have been so prevented if you would have just asked someone instead of your dumbass friend.

 

nothing you can do about it now but learn from your mistake.. g/l.

 

Wow.....Sorry op you aren't a noob you are a moron. Buy a civic.

 

wow, a really harsh crowd...and as for the 5-quarts, how much does the tranny and rear diff take?

the heads have a very slim chance of being alright...regardless, if you plan to dump that heap/wiped out long block, please let me know. I could bastardize it for a few R&D parts.

 

Harsh crowd? A kid who doesn't know how to do something so simple as to change his oil doesn't deserve a car. He shouldn't even buy a civic and get a bike like the other guy said.

 

You gotta learn somewhere.

 

+1.

we've all done some stupid shit at times with our cars. i've done some shit that would have everyone on here flaming me for weeks (mostly during my teens but not all of it.)

as long as you learn from this and ask questions first before you do anymore work on your car then the engine isnt a total loss.

 

...I don't have the money for all that...

...thanks for the info guys but I'm short of $$$...I have a job but it'll take many many months to collect around $5k...

...well I asked the mechanic if he put the tranny fluid in and he said no, that he put Royal Purple motor oil...and if you do remember correctly, you'll remember that my question was about transmission fluid...and If I could use the 75w90 on the rear diff and you said yes...which is why I bought 5 qts...but how would I expect you to believe me when I already caused all this ruckus for a confusion...an appointment??...I didn't schedule one...though I should to check what really went wrong with my engine...can I call or do I have to do it in person??...and I just remembered that I don't have warranty a letter came a while back to inform me that my warranty is out and I had the choice to renew it...and I didn't...I shoud've...crap! ...the warranty still wouldn't have worked...

...well their reactions are immature...the good news is that tranny fluid wasn't put on where the motor oil belongs, believe it or not ...but still new/yong car owners are expected to do something stupid like that is bound to happen sooner or later...anyway, well I believe opie told me 1.8 for the rear diff...I forgot for the tranny since it was while ago but the mechanic put the right amount I was told by opie...

...Ladies and Gents, you have now witnessing first class immaturity...grow up kid...people do mistakes...thats how we learn from them...you don't deserve to post in this thread...I should've exhorted "Mature Responses Only"... but of course I wouldn't expect you to understand that either...and I've already mentioned that I DIDN'T DO THE OIL CHANGE...get it right!!...the right oil was put in...capiche?...doubt it........

...Thank You...everyone learns in different ways, not everyone learns the same way...next time I do my oil I'll post a thread in every suby forum to help me out...including how hard I have to grip the bottles, how many degress per second should the nut be turned, how should I tilt the bottle to put into oil pan, what time of day should I do it, ect...

...stop!! your high level of maturity is too much for him to read!!......
