lost almost all my oil
Driving home from the ball field last night and the oil light came on and smoking like crazy. I pulled over within just a few seconds to a local gas station and shut her down. when I popped the hood there was oil all over the passenger side of the motor and of course on the exhaust. I could not find the source of the leak. I checked to oil level and it did not register. I had to add 5 quarts of oil to get it back to normal level. I had only another 2 miles to go before I was home. I cranked her up with no valve chatter or smoke but the oil light stayed on. I drove the two miles home with the light on and parked it. More oil all over the passenger side and exhaust. Checked the oil this morning and it did not register on the stick and no milky residue either. I also checked the coolant no oil in the coolant. This vehicle overheated recently due to a bad thermostat and crappy temp gauge. What do you think?
