hey, yeah. i wouldnt drive it at all right now... low oil pressure/no oil pressure leads to bad things. i lost it in my crx and now im replacing the bearings, crank, and oil pump.... time consuming booboo... at least it was caught very fast and thats all that have to be replaced. with not much oil, youre not lubin the metal to metal contacts...
