help in vancouver pls
i just overhauled my engine in minnesota and I am on my way back to North Vancouver, my engine is running great but I am leaking oil from around my oil cooler and oil filter. I can not fine exactly where the leak is coming from. I do not have tools up in Canada because I am only staying there and going to school. Does anyone have a garage and tools that I can possibly use to remove my oil cooler and check the seals. Would anyone would kind enough to help me locate the leak and fix it? Right now the leak is pretty big. I am leaking 3 qts of oil every 1200 miles. I would like to get this fixed by this coming weekend if I could. So can anyone be a good sport and help me out? I have a 2004 Saturn Redline. I will be back in north van around 7 pm and then my canadian phone will work. Please reply to this thread or call me if you want to help. My phone number is 604 441 0868

Yeah its too late now lol I screwed my engine up big time probly I was about 20 min from home in vancouver and a hose or somthing popped and i lost all my oil my oil light came on and I turned my car off right away and had it towed to my house. I have not even tried to add oil yet to see if she turns over because I am afraid I already screwed my engine up and scored a bearing. Now I have to find out ether how I can rebuild it up here in canada or have my dad drive 25 hours to come dolly my car back to minnesota where he can rebuild it.

I just saw this thread. How are things working out? Let me know if anything I could help. Like John said I don't have much tools but I'll try to help.

These cars are supposed to shut down if it senses something like this before causing damage to the motor like limp mode. If you shut it down right away you may be ok.
