wow if u still had pressure up till it let out then something exploded or popped off or somethin like that. was their anything like rocks or somethin on the road that could have been large enough to knock up under there and cut a line? (dont know if thats even possible) but ya u def have to look where the leak is/was comin from cuz that will show whats broke. then go from there. was the oil pan still ok? if it was then with a lot of oil comin out like that it prolly was an oil line. u could have had a fitting that was loosening and then it just got enough pressure to knock it off

EDIT: haha sry didnt see there were more pages. wow ya thats not good. my friend had a friend who was drivin down the hwy in his evo and all he herd was a clunk and oil pressure drop and engine shut off. looked back bout a couple hundred feet to see the oil pan lyin in the mid of the hwy w/ a nice oil trail to his car lol ya that sucked

Heh, icompletely forgotyour name was ryan too, LOL. I was referring to thegr81.

As for junk yards, probably would go into Milwaukee and see whats around there. Usually bigger cities have more selection. Either that orbust out the local yellow pages andgo shoppin.If you happen to find something up there that would probably be a bunch cheaper for drperry to haul up north.
