Above the oil filter or below the oil filter? Accidentally unscrewed huh? Sure, I understand, a wrench just somehow jumped up behind the motor and started turning bolts ALL BY ITSELF. LMAO Is the engine dumping oil all over the ground now?

 

haha no. A friend of mine just called and asked it was anything to worry about. No oil leaking. He did change the oil alright, just unscrewed something, and then relaized, it wasnt the oil filter. Now the car wont stay running, buyt will start with a battery charger. Prob a dead battery. Just curious what in that area

BYhis description, it is above the filter.

 

the only thing above the filter that he could have removed is the coolant drain which is right above it its just a big bolt, just tell him to put it back nice and tight

Could be a number of things...my guess would be to have him screw back on whatever he unscrewed and go from there.

If the car won't stay running unless on a battery charger it sounds like the alternator is toast...take it to a autozone or car parts store and they can test the output of your alternator por gratis.
