Before you pay to have it towed, look for an oil line that has failed. This sounds like a high pressure pump out, usually this is caused by a failed oil line, oil cooler, improperly installed filter, etc., something directly connected to the pressurized oil from the pump. You may pay more for the tow than the fix! -- Stuart MacMillan Seattle '84 Vanagon Westfalia '65 MGB (Driven since 1969) '74 MGB GT (Restoring) Assisting on Restoration: '72 MGB GT (Daughter's) '64 MGB (Son's) Parts cars: '68 & '73 MGB, '67 MGB GT |
