well i started my car up finally today. ran fine. then i heard lifter noise and noticed no oil pressure. so at that point i shut the car off and every drop of oil in the engine was on my garage floor. the front wheels are about 8 inches off the ground if that would have anything to do with it. could it be the little box that plugs into the block that has the pvc valve? any ideas let me know.

(note) the turbo is not on the motors yet. waiting on newer parts.

 

check the oil pressure line that hooks up to your oil filter, or your oil pan gasket

 

try to find where the oil is comming from?

 

it appears that the oil came from the mid section of the engine. under the InMa and above the oil pan. I no some engines are equiped with an oil cooler but i dont think mine has one.

could the head gasket have anything to do with it? there is no oil at all by the sending unit.

 

what has pressurized oil running through it on the Intake mani side above the exhaust? I really need help with this one.

 

Are you positive there is a oil filter on it. Or if the turbo is not on yet is there and oil line or something not connected. There also could be a plug that is gone for like a oil pressure sensor or something like that. I would clean it all up, put more oil in it, have some one start it and just look down there, if it isnt the oil filter or something like that you should be able to see it pooring out of the motor. But obviously dont take that long cause you dont want to damage the motor. MAKE SURE YOUR OIL drain plug is in also. that happened to me once and it was not cool.
