iv stripped it out the pump has chewed itself up..looks like its shat itself and gave up..there is some orrible metal in the filter and pump.but its most likely from the pump itself..

the sump oil aint to bad little bit metalic silver looking but no worse than 1st oil change..so im hoping a new pump will give me a better idea of weather engine is damaged..

now it cooled down it turn freely im thinking it got a bit to hot and didnt like it..just hope the shells aint picked up

 

note to self always take notice of flashing red lights and lack of movement on oil guage needles
