Thanks for your interest. The whole thing strikes me as odd because I had my oil changed back in april at a pennzoil quick change , I trust and use often, they let me watch. I don't change my car oil cause it sets so low to the ground, and I don't want it on a lift, this place has a dug out under ground.
Anyway as I mentioned earlier this car is only a sunday driver...............But shortly after the oil change I drove it to Florida, Gatlinburg Tn. a few times, me and my girlfriend have zipped it around for sunday lunches, 2-3,000 miles since the oil change.
So, I haven't driven it for about a month, I just took it down the road mainly to charge the battery, and BAM, all this.
Just seems to me odd, kinda out of know where? Just glad it wasn't on a trip.
I am gonna change the oil, again, new filter ,0 rings, have the belt put back on, and hope for the best?

Any other suggestions?
