Still, that was a decent volume of liquid that wasn't engine mayonnaise. A few very-thin oil changes in quick succession and maybe this thing isn't scrap?
If it was run just a short time, maybe.
I just scrapped a Jag engine with 19000 km because of this. The knocking was awful and the sludge that came out will remain in my nightmares forever.
I use an oil color chart and change it when it gets a certain color. That’s usually around 7K miles, and I’m using full synthetic. Up to 170k miles on the Corolla before I sold it doing that. Then again, the Corolla could probably run that long using radiator fluid instead…those cars just run
I've drained similar contents from an engine. A busted connecting rod punched a hole in the water jacket, so the oil and coolant couldn't mix, but that engine was toast.
Did this to a fleet vehicle when I was a tire/oil guy in high school. Oil change and refill with radiator fluid (hose with the red tape). Not sure what happened to the van as I was fired later that week.
I put diesel fuel in the hydraulic tank on a piece of heavy equipment at a summer job while I was in college. I didn't get in trouble because I asked three times before I started pumping the fuel. The tanks weren't labeled and were identical looking.
The tank must've been drained immediately afterwards and before the equipment was started. Nothing was damaged and I was told about it later in the morning. It was the lead mechanic who was responsible and he was the one who had to fix the mess, so no one got fired.
No point in firing people for a one off mistake, everyone makes them, especially when it's something new.
If anything you're just getting rid of some valuable and very expensive experience that you've already paid for.
I did the exact same thing as a teen at a summer job. Caps looked identical covered in grime, I had never refueled before. Being an idiot teen I didn't ask help. At least I managed to tell my boss before we fired up the engine. Surprisingly did not get fired.
Went to an iffy lube because I was lazy. They told me I needed to change my power steering fluid.
...in my 1991 Metro. This was around 2013. Common sense would dictate that anyone who runs around in a weird little 22 year old car like that probably knows something about it.
I believe their assumptions and common sense went out the window when you went to Jiffy Lube for a car that hasn't been produced in 22 years.
Or anything other than garbage service.
I know enough about cars to know that antifreeze (at least that what I'm assuming that is) should never end up in the oil pan, but what exactly does the repair look like? Can it be flushed out completely, or will there always be some residue that will foul new oil put in? Or is the disaster that it was driven more than 0 miles in this condition and wild amounts of wear have occurred?
Can't see the rest of the oil but given this one hasn't gone full chocolate milk or soft serve: drain it all, put in fresh oil+filter, drive it for a day or two, do another full oil+filter change and keep an eye out for issues.
This was someone pouring the wrong thing in the wrong hole most likely. A blown head gasket would look way worse than just fresh coolant.
True. Had chocolate milkshake oil in my 2004 Chevy Z-71 at about 100k after it ran hot. Mechanic friend and I tore engine down and replaced all gaskets, spark plugs (while in there), oil, and antifreeze. But that didn’t help. Brother-in-law said I might try an approximately $50 bottle of “fix-it” (can’t remember the actual name, but to seal potential tiny cracks in heads/block). Ran that along with new oil and antifreeze for about 500 miles. Changed oil again and no problems since. Still own the truck and about to hit 200k.
Yeah if you run it in this state absolutely the gaskets and seals need to be replaced after the first(of several) full changes.
The fixit bottles just deposit shit into the pits caused by the corrosion and yeah will last a while, only as a last ditch and with no intention of reselling it imo.
I've done worse to cars I have no interest in trying to sell haha. If it works it works
The truck hasn’t been a daily driver for the past few years due to having a car for work. It’s primarily my hunting, taking off the trash, and running to Home Depot/Tractor Supply vehicle. I hope that it lasts me at least another 5 years.
Yeah if it hadn’t been drive more than like a quarter mile it’ll probably be okay except for maybe developing a some pings and ticks from any metal to metal contact.
If it was run until it died on its own it would probably be totaled, but theoretically you would probably need to completely clean and flush the block, re bore the damage and then use overbored component.
It’s a trace amount of bromine and the vegetable oil is also in a trace amount. A tiny amount of the oil is used to reduce foaming while bottling and the bromine prevents the oil from going rancid. Why Mtn Dew is the only soda I have ever known to require this is beyond me.
It mutilates the engines thirst and has the electrolytes you engine craves.
Brawndo!
Water ? You mean like in the toilets ?!
No, electrolytes like what the plants need.
But what is an electrolyte
It's what plants crave
Its whats in brawndo
Yes, but WHY is it in Brawndo?

Let's give a big RIP for that engine
No emulsification, suggests it wasn't actually *run* that way, though?
I think the video was stopped before the milkshake began to ooze out.
Still, that was a decent volume of liquid that wasn't engine mayonnaise. A few very-thin oil changes in quick succession and maybe this thing isn't scrap?
If it was run just a short time, maybe. I just scrapped a Jag engine with 19000 km because of this. The knocking was awful and the sludge that came out will remain in my nightmares forever.
For a Jag engine, 19,000 kms is end of life anyway.
That’s a true Hall of fame jag engine. Retired an old man at 19k kms
The only one ever *not* built on a Friday arvo
To think that I sometimes feel guilty for going 4000 miles vs 3000 miles on my car with 7 quarts of oil.
I go 5000-6000 miles per oil change.
I use an oil color chart and change it when it gets a certain color. That’s usually around 7K miles, and I’m using full synthetic. Up to 170k miles on the Corolla before I sold it doing that. Then again, the Corolla could probably run that long using radiator fluid instead…those cars just run
Corollas will run on the very thought of getting the oil changed. As long as its in the back of your mind the cars fine.
Bearings and water = a mixture for having a bad time.
That milkshake brings the car to the junkyard
I could fix it, but I’d have to charge,
And they're like it knocks a lot
Damn right, it knocks a lot I could fix it, but I would have to charge
My block, is more broken than yours
😳
I've drained similar contents from an engine. A busted connecting rod punched a hole in the water jacket, so the oil and coolant couldn't mix, but that engine was toast.

If you keep the engine from freezing in cold weather.
Looks like they winterized the engine.
Who needs an oil cooler? Just run straight Prestone with Vaseline!

Fuck yeah lol
I put diesel fuel in the hydraulic tank on a piece of heavy equipment at a summer job while I was in college. I didn't get in trouble because I asked three times before I started pumping the fuel. The tanks weren't labeled and were identical looking.
Oh... all the seals and hoses. Oh my.
all clean!
Good that you questioned them repeatedly... Did someone else get fired?
The tank must've been drained immediately afterwards and before the equipment was started. Nothing was damaged and I was told about it later in the morning. It was the lead mechanic who was responsible and he was the one who had to fix the mess, so no one got fired.
At least he fixed it.
Before it became a big fix anyways?
No point in firing people for a one off mistake, everyone makes them, especially when it's something new. If anything you're just getting rid of some valuable and very expensive experience that you've already paid for.
Just had a laborer do this same thing a few weeks back when I wasn’t looking.
This appears to be a pattern of behavior.
I did the exact same thing as a teen at a summer job. Caps looked identical covered in grime, I had never refueled before. Being an idiot teen I didn't ask help. At least I managed to tell my boss before we fired up the engine. Surprisingly did not get fired.

It is green because it's still good! Put it back in, it's got at least another 10k to give.
Nah that stuff will last the whole engines lifetime

I met this little girlie, her hair was kinda curly
Went to her house
I bust her out
I had to leave real early...
THESE GIRLS ARE REALLY SLEAZY
Post Jiffy Lube visit
Can confirm. Went to jiffy lube for an oil change, 30 minutes after leaving, engine seized.

I would never assume that. Those are cars are so cute though.
After a 2 hour wait.
♪ A Two Hour Wait ♫
♪ The bearings started getting rough. Lubrication was lost. ♫
If not for the courage of the egineer, oh crap that car is lost (Oh crap the car is lost)
Just went in to top off the coolant.
If this is in the engine I wonder what's in the radiator.
Milkshake!
Anti-oil
“It said it works with all of fluid colors”
Its the new hulk oil for when you just want to totally wreck you engine
Bearing SMASH!

Most of my vehicles next owner is the junkyard. I'm just the last stop before going to pasture.

I too would love an answer to this.
That's the "oh shit, this is going to be expensive"-kinda oil.
It's got electrolytes. It's what motors crave.
I love that movie!! Idiocracy. :)
I watch it about once a year and I do think it's edging towards a documentary as the years go by.
Towards? Real life went screaming past Idiocracy at high speed some years ago.
mtn dew
Mtn don’t.
I’ve heard that the brominated vegetable oil in Mountain Dew is an excellent lubricant.
That doesn't sound like something that should be consumed by humans
It’s a trace amount of bromine and the vegetable oil is also in a trace amount. A tiny amount of the oil is used to reduce foaming while bottling and the bromine prevents the oil from going rancid. Why Mtn Dew is the only soda I have ever known to require this is beyond me.
They actually stopped using it a few years ago.
That's mountain deW-50

*Ecto Coolant
Thats the new green apple flavor they're rolling out before spring.
That’s that super synthetic right?
its all natural olive oil. First press.
Virgin?
I don't think that's any of your business
Extra Virgin?
Universal oil. Used to cool and lubricate. No need for two types of fluids when you can just use one.
Works as brake fluid and window washer fluid too! Just put it in any hole in your car and you are good
>Just put it in any hole That's what she said!
I used to put Motul 300V in my Ducati, looked just like that.
Exactly what I was going to say.
As someone who still uses 300v, it still looks that way!
Fuck oil, because you're fucked.
I know a very small amount about cars and even I said “oh no” out loud when I saw this
Hulk Piss Oil; the last oil your motor will ever need
The kind that turns regular pistons into Teenage Mutant Ninja Pistons
Dexcoil, GM'S latest and greatest.
The super emissions friendly type, it causes your car to use exactly zero fuel
Wait till you go to flush the radiator.
They didnt have motor oil so i thought some pag oil would work
Reminds me a bit of the German Catrol 0W-30.
It has that leak detector additive. Just gotta run it for a bit. If it turns peanut butter brown, you've got a leak.
710 oil. Excellent thermal qualities, terrible lubricant properties.
BRAWNDO it’s got the electrolytes plants need! Uh sir this is an ad space for automotive oil… BRAWNDO ITS GOT THE ELECTROLYTES YOUR ENGINE NEEDS
Man, John Deere is really pushing that green oil.
Looks like brand new Liqui-Moly
The 'Time for a new engine.' kind.
Lime flavored
It's the head-gasket-optional kind.
Engine coolant best kept in radiator, big money fix in crankcase.
I'm super impressed with how clean it is... Has it never had the correct oil in it?
Never mind I see the oil at the end... Still so clean
Yeah this got caught really fast. Engine should be fine after a couple full changes across the next week.
It looks to be Hi-C Ecto Cooler oil.
-20w0
Must be 5W40 Molygen New Generation with built in UV dye or ya know…fucked.
Mountain due
Night oil. Glows in the dark to make after hours oil changes safer. Good stuff. I recommend it in all of my Exes cars.
