    Default How much power loss?

    Was just wondering if any1 knew if I would loose much power with a leaking sump? And how much approx?
    I ask this thinking about oil pressure gauges(why have a meter if its not important) But I don't know if this applies to a V6 or an ecotec for that matter?
    I also i have put in thicker oil which would have to lose power wouln't it?

    it doesnt matter about the power you would lose... tighten up your sump or you will lose all your oil and your engine will seaze up then you will have no power
