How a car without oil sounds like

[CarbonSteel]

A bit disappointing the YouTube wolf pack did not perform their normal "shredding" via comments; there is usually far more entertainment to be had from those than the actual video.

Total and complete idiot...

I resemble that remark.

If it's any consolation, it's a Smart Fortwo, one of the most awful vehicles you can buy. So no big loss.

 

[dishdude]

He's the type that when the turbo goes or it starts using oil, he'll drone on incessantly for decades on every online forum about how awful Smart cars are.

 

[linkbelt]

That has got to be the most foolish thing I ever saw a "grown" man do!

I am sure car dealers love this fool!

 

[Klutch9]

"I'm sure I'll be criticized for running my engine without oil in it..." This man is a prophet.

 

[andrewg]

This is a perfect example of why I don't like to buy used cars.

 

[RISUPERCREWMAN]

Perfect example of why you should not let an old [censored] change your oil. They think they know everything about everything! What a Moron!

From his comments under comments:

Back in '92 I drove a Plymouth Voyager van. I was in the process of trading it in for a new car when the oil pump blew out.
I called the dealership about driving with 0 PSI oil pressure. They said don't worry as it wouldn't affect the trade.
I drove 13 miles to work and back for two and a half days and nothing happened.


There's no denying his superior intellect.

I know i saw that comment too, clearly he wasn't driving that long with no oil presssure, although he thinks he was. No car is going to drive 30+ mile with zero oil pressure, he probably just lost the sensor.

Amazing what some people will do to get attention.

He was allowed to get a Smart car, named his tools with names that are easy to remember, wipes the dirt/dust from around the dipstick and fill hole into the engine so the filter catches it rather than get dirt on the ground, knows what cardboard is made for, knows how to use gloves, bungee, funnel, remembers to oil the filter o-ring/gasket..... wait! he's showing how to change oil but cut it short by not showing running the car after the OC is done & check for leaks etc. And didn't lay there displaying his crack smoking a cig while draining the oil, so can't be all that bad.

 

[Fordtrucktexan]

Meh. No biggie, the crank and bearings will self clearance. LOL

 

[aquariuscsm]

I didn't think an engine could run that long with no oil in it.

 

[mcrn]

Another option would be to put it in neutral and just push it off the ramps....this guy was doing so good.

Before getting to the post oil change restart, the "one size fits all" wrench started to make me nervous.

The guy does seem like a decent dude, most likely a good guy and nice neighbor.

I gave him the link to this thread, let's see what happens
