Default NO OIL HELP.

I have been running my car with no oil un-noticed becuase the oil light dos not work im guessing, my question is what can happen to a motor running with little or no oil?? and i have been running the car with no oil for 2-3 weeks off and on. the cuplret is my oil line to the oil pan from turbo.

what can or might have happen to my motor. running no oil.

I came into this problem today too.

Every time I would do a turn onto another street the oil light would blink. So I got home and had no oil, the dipstick didn't show any at ALL.

What could make my motor burn up so much oil all of a sudden?

I'm not trying to thread Jack OP, looks like were on the same boat.

I never really check it, everytime I did an oil change the oil was always perfect.

I'd say I have 80K on the engine. Never seen any oil spots, Im going to be keeping a close eye on it from now on.

I read it somewhere, where the dealer drain the oil off a acura RL (trade in Chunker car), and drove the sucker for 40 mins. Then it finally caught on fire at the back.
But the first thing it'll go out is your valvetrain then your rods.
