that really sucks... No oil means your turbo is probably close to being done as well.

Fortunately, if you can find a longblock locally, it shouldnt be expensive. I know my friend picked up an entire short block with the complete rotating assy for $100 and the head is another 150 or so.

Good luck.

Who pulled your drain plug? I would make them eat all the parts of your engine that broke because of it.

If it was my car, and I found out who did it, I'd bludgeon him with the thrown rod until it stuck out of his head. Then give him a golden shower.Good luck.
