Blown Engine Need Help
I drive a 91 civic 4d with the d16a6 engine.
I was cruising back to the base here in norfolk when all of a sudden i hear a loud pop, and saw smoke. I imidiatly turn the engine off and push the clutch in. I coast to a stop and notice theres oil leaking all over the ground. So after standing around for about 30mins. I try and start it up rela quick to see if any of the internals start to clink. Well she started for a sec and died. I think the batt was mostly dead at htis point from the hazards being on. But it still turns over, however there isnt any oil in te engine by this point. All the oil splatter is located on the left (drivers) side of the engine bay.
Im not really an experianced engine builder. But if a honda engine is similar to some v8's i worked on id say that i blew an oil line/oil pan. I havent looked under the car yet since i dont have a flashlight with me. (spend 300$ on various tools and i dont buy a flashlight)
At this point really dont know what to do. Any input would be great.
-thanks
