the car starts, idles, stays on now.

but i think i got fucked with a dud motor.

theres a TON of noise coming from the cams cause theyre not getting oil,
and after you turn it off and take the oil cap off it smells like straight gas.


so blow by FTW.
im guessing something could be wrong with the strainer or oil pump for the oil issue?

and bad rings for the blow by?

any other options that you guys think would be great. being as im stuck here and im supposed to be out of the house by thursday
 
put a qt of diesel in it and let it idle for 2-3 minutes (DO NOT REV IT) then change the oil and if theres anything cloged it will clear it out

i dont get his theory either... i ran diesel oil in my sr, and thats fine, but i dont see that fixing valve train noise
 
its just really dry on the cams and they make noise.

ive read that if the strainers gasket is messed up that wouldnt help.
but what would cause the blow by? same problem or something else?
 
Worn rings would cause blow by, and I guess enough gas in the oil would thin it out and cause upper engine probs? Just my guess without ripping it apart or looking at it.
 
is the car running mega rich cause once you you get that much gas in the oil it will pass by the rings anyway no matter what state there in.
 
car is stock. i changed the 480's to stock and put more oil in it. it was a bit low before.

and im more worried about the no oil problem more than the blow by
