Not true, it's used in T56s.

OP, 5w 30 is too thick. Spray a bunch of wd40 down the oil filler to thin it out, and pour a little Dexcool in their too to help clean out any leftover Dexron.

I felt sorry for the kid a few pages ago pt h made me laugh so hard I peed myself so it is on!Dude, you spun a bearing in your motor, that means it needs a rebuild, that will cost upwards of 2,500 dollars.Your ricer friend was wrong, you can't run any internal combustion engine without motor oil.

No, or motor is dead, make a vid of the noise..I'm thinking along with probably everyone here, your motor has spun a bearing.
