OK. Give the guy a break now. I'm sure he feels bad enough.

At least it was caught quick enough, that would have been devastating and 100% out of pocket to fix.

Naa. He would have had a bunch of smoke out the exhaust and an unhappy tranny. As long as he realized it quickly, it would have been ok. I saw someone who didnt drain both oil plugs on a Z06. It turned out fine.

I'm a little surprised that the engine turns over with 16 quarts of oil. I hope you didn't damage the starter motor...

on the brighter side, at least the tranny fluid's changed..

This thread makes no sense. Either a back story needs to be known or something was edited? So were you draining the tranny or what?

Chobbs11 · 03-18-2011, 09:22 AM

Thread is clear. He drained the tranny thinking it was the oil and added oil ending up with 16 quarts of oil in the engine.

What a bummer. And this was not the first time, he admitted, he made this mistake. Double bummer.
