Thanks for the good discussion about my problem. I am looking at several things concerning this. First I am trying to determine with my mechanic if the vehicle has a low oil cut off 'switch'. If it does then the problem is not as bad as I/we think. Second the mechanic will be checking the torque...

I am not sure if it was damaged. I bought it 2.5 years ago used.

The mechanic said he does not know what could have happened or caused it. He also said it was on extremely tight. He does not see any evidence that it was hit by something, because the undercarriage does not show any damage etc...

Thanks Brons2 for correcting my spelling. :-). The picture is of the canister of the car. Also I was not driving it, but my daughter was. It was sitting at her dorm for a few weeks and she tried to start it and it would not...

I had my oil changed at a big-chain shop. My engine ceased after 2K miles. I am not sure what happen, so I am asking around to see if anyone have seen this before. Look at the picture and please give me your thoughts. And what do you think caused this....thanks.. Mazda Pictures
