        Oilpans are over rated, so is oil.

        Use water.

          Ketchup works better, it's viscous, so it'll plug up the hole in your pan and stay in your internals.

              ROFL... you didn't notice until it was empty?? Did you run over something or what?

                That was probably empty for a while....Usually oil wont drain out of a crack rapidly unless the engine is off. How long did it run with no oil?

                  Bummer that I just let my 2nd spare go.

                  You can't have my spare.

                  Call Joe Funk at Autobahnsport. I think he just might have a spare.

                  Where did you bash it at?

                      we had a windstorm like last week and a branch fell in front of me with no time to avoid it. I hit is, checked my bumper and then drove home and parked. Then I checked it 2 days later and oil was all over :(((. It was only driven about a mile after the crack so I think its all fine.

                          Might as well do the kiddie play sand extrude hone mod while you're at it. It'll make your car insane batshit fast, I swear.

                            if just a small crack, have it TIG welded.
