Gas poured in my head!!!

[ZCpowerdSI]

hey, i was wondering. if gas is poured into my head where the oil is filled, what will happen??? because i think this was done to my civic that i had just bought. i got in a little argument with the guy that i bought it off of after i made a down payment, and i went to go pay the rest of it and stuck my finger in the hole to feel if he dumped something in it cuz he was pissed. my finger smelled a bit like gas. then i smelled in the hole it smelled like gas. i know its supposed to smell a bit like gas but this was a bit stronger than you would think. what could this do to the engine??

change the oil and run it..the gas would have drained down inot the oil pan and sat in there..

 

[ZCpowerdSI]

should i flush it?? i donno, never came across something this stupid. or just pour some oil in with out the oil plug in just to make sure all the gas is out?

 

[ZCpowerdSI]

will it hurt the engine if gas is in there?

Yes do an oil flush after the oil change to get all of the debris off any part of your head or block then go ahead and do your oil change and u should be fine.

My advise would be to not run it at all, and change the oil immediately. What you have is a giant molotov cocktail in an enclosed container. That thing could blow to bits! (in theory) Change the oil with some super cheap oil, run it around town for an hour or so, then change it again with normal oil. You should be fine after that.

do what phyregod says, gas scores engine bearings.

gas in the oil is bad! lots of bad things could happen if you drive around like that for long.

dont run it at all, and do what these other guys said!

Gasoline is an exellent solvent and will help BURN up your bearing in a second!! change the oil and flush it with more oil before you run it!!!!

ok thanks. havn't even bin started after i test drove it.

I'd check to see if he didn't put shit like sugar into the gas tank too.

My question is, what did you do to piss him off?

 

[ZCpowerdSI]

well i gave him a down payment and a few days later i went to his house and the header was off.. he took the header off. and i was blastin him out. and got in a big fight with him and his girl friend. and i'm not driving the car.. im takin the engine out.. low millage dohc zc. mine has a spun bearing. so sugar in the tank is nothing.

wow.... i would have said, "give me my deposit back i'm going else where"... . you're pretty stupid for going through with the deal...

 

[klyph]

Yeah, that's some bullshit. I would have gotten my money or the header back. You have so many ways and means at that point, there's no reason to let him screw you over.

 

[awptickes]

What about the sodium silicate he put in the oil as well?

[95b16coupe]

you're stupid for still buying this car.

your next post is going to be, "where can i get a new engine"?

 

[eg6sir]

who knows, the guy may have loosened every bolt on the car so it'll fall apart while you're driving... not anything you can prove either... again, stupid move on your part
