sorry to hear man..interested to see what they find... you just changed the oil too huh? how many miles between the oil change? what oil and weight did you use?

 

[Rustycowl69]

was there anything in the old oil? do you still have the filter you removed? If so, you might want to cut it open, see what's inside.

I try to change the oil at about 7000 miles and I'm running 5/20. I checked the oil I might look at it closer when I get home. I tossed the filter now I wish I would of kept it just to cut it open and check. Waiting to get her towed home for the time being to weigh my options. This really sucks!

Those quotes are a little higher than what I was quoted for a replacement engine a couple years ago, but not by much.

Thanks guys! I'm moving soon and I short on time and space. That would be the ideal thing to do but I think I'll leave this to the pros to be sure I get a good out come and not have to worry if I screwed something up. Plus I will have a warranty if I have any mishaps or problems.
