He also has a newer F-Series parked outside. Sell the truck, buy a beater, buy an engine, problem solved. Or better idea, sell the SRT-4 and don't get kicked out of your house.

This is why you don't hot rod your car unless you can afford it when it breaks.

I think that if he had the ability to use reason or logic he probably wouldn't have bought (or at least not blown up) an SRT4 in the first place.

The only way I can see that happening is if they knocked a fuel injector out of its seat during the oil change. Instant fuel sprayed all over engine upon cranking, and spark from any number of nearby locations.

That's not an oil leak. That's the automatic oil change and chassis protection feature.

Even that is completely impossible during an oil change. The 3800 in that video still has it's plastic cover which completely covers the engine including the injectors. The oil filter is on the passenger side in between the control arms so you're no where near the injectors even then. Even checking the power steering is on the passenger side between the firewall and engine. There is no way you could cause that during a normal oil change.

Perhaps the intake manifold blew up unrelated to the oil change.

EDIT: Id bet they changed plug wires, got them wrong and it blew up the intake manifold and shot the injectors out/severed the fuel line.

Sure, Bruce McLaren died in a nearly identical car and they were basically death traps... but, uh... it was 1970 so safety was basically "don't hit stuff", I guess.
