[MeSHOYouHow]

Last night i had a brain fart and slid off the road at a T goin like 40. ehhhh. It bottomed out pretty hard. well my car is now spewing oil out the bottom. and my dip stick is bent! It is comming out of the left side of the engine, almost like it is comign out of the dip stick tube... not sure right now havent had a lot of time to look at it. But if anyone has any ideas what it might be, i would be greatful for any help.

Well, you had to hit that pretty hard in order to bend the dipstick, because the dip stick is inside the oil pan. If the damage is that bad it probably won't be very hard to find the leak. You probably damaged the oil pan to the point where it needs to be replaced.

I got a better look at it today. The oil pan is shatterd. Can someone help me out with good directions on how to remove the oil pan for a 93 ATX 3.2?

Yup, check out Kurt Metros' site, has instructions on connecting rod bearing replacement, which now that you're down there, this would be a good time to invest $60 in a set, an extra hour and do yours...trust me
