Busted an oil pan: Is the motor still good?

[416stroker]

the whole part of the pan that sticks down below the steering rack as well as the oil pump/pickup was torn right off. I drove by where the accident occurred and there's a 3 foot black spot on the curb. LOL

the good news is that I finally got everything back together, and the engine runs fine.:)

good to hear your cars ok

im getting a CEL, and the stomp test reveals code 1222 - which means its either running too lean or rich.

it did this ever since Id replaced the oil pan, and the CEL would disappear when I stabbed the throttle. but now its stuck on. any ideas on what could have went wrong? AFAIK the only thing that changed was the oil pan.

maybe you pinched a hard fuel line under the car.

what about that vacume line under the trottle boddy that goes to the charcoal canister, you might have pulled that off

[Nic01101011]

hmmm. Ill have a look at all that when I get a chance. The car seems to run fine.

I drove my car for about 3 weeks with less than a quart of oil in it at all times due to a leak. I just replaced the pan and my car is as strong as ever...

If the crack is big enough it will cause your sputtering. Mine had a very rough idle before I replaced the pan.

also, the car will randomly emit 3 beeps every so often when driving. no idea what thats about

Is your Memo turned on on the OBC? If so, it should gong just before the hour change.

I finally got a look underneath, and it's pretty nasty. It's not just a crack in the pan, the whole things ripped off and I can look up into the engine. :(

Sounds like the car I purchaced in Tracy last week
