PAINT IN ENGINE OIL, HELP!
Discussion
This is going to sound like a very weird question.
I was filling up my car engine oil today, nothing unusual, until I soon realised that somebody had swapped the oil for black paint. I'm not stupid (I say this, after I just put paint in my car) so I soon realised what it actually was. Hardly anything got into it, and the paint that did manage to get in, I managed to recover some of it with a cloth. I'm talking about literally 0.1 of a litre, or a quarter of a cup that actually made its way into the oil. I haven't ran the engine yet, but I wanted to seek advice first. What would be the repercussions of running the car? I don't particularly want to pay to have it looked at, is there anything I can do myself?
