  • bricked engine, no oil coolant, how long

    We are holding a fund raiser at our work place today with an 97 Sebring drained of coolant and lube.
    We are selling squares for how long it will take to sieze the engine at full throttle.

    How many minutes or seconds do you guys think it will take?

    This is going to be fun!!!!
    Aspires and Sways all around, Miata B6 installed, KYB G2Rs just installed in front. Wish for coil overs someday.

      How much are they selling the squares for? How much do you win?

      Sounds like a waste of running engine.....

      I'd think it would run for a while....

              probably 30 minutes, older engine will have alot of oil in the bearings and not so tight. wont be under load so, i think 30 minutes.

                I am not a real big fan of them anyway, but at full throttle with NO oil, and nothing to keep them cool, it won't last long.

                    I will give it 15 minutes. I hope you tell us how long it lasts.
