  • Even wondered what would happen if your car's engine ran out of oil, but were too afraid to test it out? Well, wonder no more! Mat's brought along a Honda Civic, Peugeot 206 and Ford Focus to see what would happen to these everyday heroes if you try and run them when they're completely dry of fluid. But which will rum for the longest? Let us know in the comments, then watch the video to find out!

    Thing came in after driving in the highway at 120. Air cooling I guess. No oil, cracked intake manifold, and exhaust manifold, spark knocking like an SOB.
    Only issue is the clutch needed to be replaced…

But while many Japanese cars as they are from the factory are not much performance wise, they’re bullet proof, which also means you can throw boost at stock engines and outrun a lot of muscle cars. They’re definitely good cars. And something I thought I’d never say, I think my next car is going to be a Honda

Makes me wonder if they faked the Honda result and left some oil in it. That combined with how long as it lasted, it looks like they might have just drained the coolant from the Honda.

      You are right. If the oil pressure light glass isn't on, there is still enough oil.
      The connecting-rod bearings in a Honda engine are nothing out of the ordinary; they would have failed as quickly as the others without pressurized oil.
      And depending on whether the engine has a cast-iron or aluminum block, the pistons can lock up more or less quickly without cooling.
      A french channel did the same thing with a Citroën Saxo, and as with the Honda, they were able to go several kilometers "without oil" before the warning light came on. Because here too, there was enough oil left to pump.

    Theres an urban legend that there has never been a Honda engine failure (in normal use). I'm very sad that the UK factory is closing down, I've had 2 UK made Hondas and they are superb. I used to think German cars were good when I was young and didn't know better, but that was in comparison to British Leyland ones which looking back were terrible. Mercs up to about 1990 are good too, but parts cost more as most of them get exported to Africa so hard to get used spares from breakers.

I was latter sold to a young student, carrying him through many challenges in life. Finally, he got a good job, we parted ways with bittersweet farewells.

    In Honda and Renault engines the crankcase acts as in intermediate oilpan as it has no holes or gaps so even with oilpan drains the still hold a small quantity of oil.

    That must have been what did my Honda Accord in. 220k miles it would rev up and down and keep doing that. I think I also may have cracked the block. Junkyard gave me $300 for it.

      You strip it and race it. If you add a bucket seat, you can take your bucket seat home after you're done with destroying the car.
