Re: Well my birthday (today) pretty much SUCKED!
I had a '78 Celica once upon a time. I was driving 3 hours from State College PA, about halfway home, when the engine started losing power. I had to push the gas further and further down to keep the car moving. Finally I pulled over to see what was wrong. No oil! A pinhole leak had opened up in the front cover, pumping all all the oil out. I put a few quarts in and drove it home. Got the leak fixed, drove it for another 50K. It never was *quite* the same after 30 minutes at highway speeds with no oil in the crankcase, but I'm not complaining.
