    Sounds like the oil pump failed, don't start the engine again to avoid further damage and have a shop check this, you can find one here www.repairpal.com/directory

    hemicuda and all wannabe mechanics on these sites all have their own opinion and no one really knows the real answer to solve a problem. It's not a guessing game guys and not trial and error, when you really know what you are doing you don't guess or "try this or that" take it from me a woman who knows intelligence
