ok so i have a 93 xj sport four door with a 4.0i6 and an aw4 auto trans i have replaced the valve cover gasket new oil filter and new oil ump my next thing was the rear main seal and well i new i was low on oil i went and started it up

to pull in the garage and something blew i looked under car and oil was everywhere i need some help im in some totally sh** i need some desperate ideas and car only has 135xxx miles on it

 

Need a little more details before advise can be given.

 

Start looking for the leak.

Leaks are difficult for us to help you with.

Oil filter and oil pressure sending unit are the first places to look.

 

so when i started it up something underneath blew by the rear end of the engine and there's oil every were im not sure what to do or were to start now she wont even start at all i know i out the valve cover gasket on and a new oil filter

 

Like TJsaid, look at oil filter area, I have seen an oil filter blow up before, also oil pressure sending unit could have broken. Good Luck

 

well i know she still leaked after i put the oil filter itself on and it was leakng bad i was going through 4-5 quarts daily so your saying it could just be tht its leaking the the sending unit

 

ok so i think the blow out was the oil filter but im still replacing the rear main seal this week just for preventative maintenance

 

What you cant wait for me to get my rig running you have to break yours? LOL! You said it won't start right? What does she do? Did you look at the areas where the oil filter is? By saying you had something blow by and a huge amounts of oil doesnt give us alot to work with. Tell us details of what it did when this happened and details of what it does now. Maybe even pic's, becaus we all like pic's.

 

probably broke off OPSU, mine broke and i lost about 4 qts of oil on a drive home, scary ****

 

yea every good story has a pic/vid behind it post some and show us what happened

 

Lol nah it was the oil filter I dont think it was tighten all the way and I think to much pressure built up. So it starts now so no prob now but I still have a small leak so I think I'm going to still do the rear main and oil pan gasket so if any one want to lend a hand with that bs let me know

 

pay for a first class round trip ticket from ny and you got yourself a deal ill pay for booze

 

Lol after my nice long check for 6grand wirth of tools then purchasing a new engine, trans, tcase, afe cold air intake and severe high performance tune up full msd ignition rubicon express lift and wheels tires carpet and new body parts im a lil broke

 

oh did i mention im buying booze?
