It could have been worse. I was told of a guy who has petrol leaking all night into his engine, filling the sump.

Ha ha that is quite funny. Easily done though. I heard of a bloke that got a little confused and filled his cooling system with oil and his sum with water, ops... http://www.twin-turbo.co.uk
