Is it possible to fix the oil rigs on a '95 Ford Thunderbird myself Are oil rigs a universal part or are they different between different brands or models?

Every engine model has a different size of rings. The rings are probably the hardest part to change, because you have to disassemble the entire engine. If removing, tearing down and rebuilding an engine is beyond your abilitys, you should get a good used engine and swap it. Often replacing it with a used engine will be much cheaper.


What causes low oil if you see no leak?

Your car is possibly burning oil which means you probably should have it checked by a mechanic. If your rings are bad, you could be burning it. Check to see if you're smoking or if there's an oily residue on the inside of your tailpipe. The engine may be burning the oil due to worn valve guide seals or piston rings or check your rad cap to see if there is a white foam or greasey oil on it.If you find oil in your rad the head gasket might be damaged or you could have a cracked block. please dont remove the rad cap unless the engine is cool!

Identify the origin of the leak, and repair accordingly. E.g., if it's the oil pump, reseal or replace it. If it's the oil pan gasket, replace the gasket. If it's blowing through the scraper rings on the cylinders and out the exhaust, it's probably a good time to rebuild the engine. What kind of answer are you expecting?
