What happens when your engine seizes?

When an engine seizes, it will most likely begin to overheat first, then begin to make a loud, clunking noise. Oil will begin to pour out from underneath if it throws a piston rod. If it is an automatic, it will coast to a stop. If a manual transmission, it will begin to jerk and hop along, finally coming to a stop. The brakes and steering will continue to work as usual.


What do you do when your engine has seized. It seized while running. The dip stick is dry. I poured 3 quarts of oil in and the car still wont start?

When an engine seizes because of a lack of oil, it is typically because the bearing material has overheated and melted due to friction, then the babbitt coating of the bearings cools and seizes to the crankshaft. At that point, the crankshaft cannot turn. A seized engine will not run. Your only option is to remove the engine and either rebuild it or replace it. Even if you COULD cause the bearings to release, the friction and heat will have caused enough other damage that other components will be misaligned. The Saturn engines are well designed, but they will not operate without oil.


What does sluge in the engine do?

Sludge is oil that becomes sticky like glue. It clogs the engine parts so no oil is getting through, thus no lubrication, the engines seizes up from grinding and overheating.
