I had to use my beater pos 1989 Econoline to lug up a 12 ft roll of Duramove to San Fran today.


On the way home it starts to make a sound very much like a dozen playing cards would make if wedged in a bicycle wheel going 65 mph.

I pulled over to get some gas and check out the sound be fore heading over the Santa Cruz Mountains.
After stopping my TECH tells me to move the van forward a few feet to get to the pump hose.


Van wont turn over. :shock:

A few attempts later she starts and I now have smoke coming from the key hole :shock: :shock:


and I have oil dripping from all over and under the engine as well as a smoking muffler that looks soaked in oil at one end. :shock: :shock: :shock:




I'm gonna pull the 2100 and put the Ford on mBay for $5.00



Stereo not included...

not a head gasket, is the starter trying to engage, or is it just clicking, or what? Sounds like you threw a rod out the oil pan.

Plug it up with goop and sell it to some mexicans so they can get across the border.

Sounds like the oil leaked out via a problem(ran something over or oil pan rusted out). The noise was the motor knocking and siezing up(not starting). Junk now
