I was driving my 94 integra ls about a month ago before i put it away for storage for the winter and the oil light came on, i didnt know that i was getting low on oil cuz i did not yet hook up my oil gadge that i bought. i drove about a mile maby a little more to the nearest oil shop so i could put oil in it. I check my oil freqently becouse it is a turbo car but the reson it leaked out so fast was becouse i had found out that my oil return line had broke. So i fixed the line and put oil back into the engine, how bad was this on my engine? did it hurt it any? the engine doesnt tick and seems to not run any diferent but i just want to b on the safe side....idk maby i just got extreamly lucky. let me know waht you think becouse one of my frineds told me that that was extreaammyy bad spacualy if the light comes on, he sais that means zero presure...is that correct?

 

if there was still some oil in there then you should be fine... it is bad that the light comes on but every time my light came on i still had oil in there and had oil pressure so i dont know about that statement your buddy gave you... if you dont hear anything or its not acting up or differently then i wouldnt really worry about it...

 

you should be fine bro, unless you hear any ticking or feel anything out of the ordinary, your line most likely had "reserves" left in it. So Im judging your ok

 

Ok, thx Alot guys that makes me feel a hole lot better... i think i should be ok. Im just always soo worryed about my baby lol

 

yea your good one of my buddys drove around his civic with like no oil trying to blow his car up the light came one and he still drove it for a bit b/4 it blew it...but it got bad u start hearing everything so you should be good dn't worry bout it.

 

Your most likely fine. Next time you change your oil check for any kind of metal or bearing material in the pan

 

Good idea ^^ ill do that. Thx again guys...

 

good luck with it. check back and let me know
