    Beni,

    No oil can do that - and it will flog out the bearings fairly fast......

    Did you check to see if there was still oil after you dropped it off, as if there was then that tells a different story

    Depending on what damage has occurred, you could look at just removing the sump, check the bearing shells and crankshaft. If the crank is OK, then it may be only a matter of replacing the bearings, and reassembling.....

    Let's hope that there is no more damage, as no oil could also mean scoring or pickup in the piston bores, which would then facilitate a full rebuild
