I just changed the oil about 1500 miles ago, and when i did i also took off the front head due to burning oil in my cylinder #5. When i took off the head, I found that something had been smacking around on the piston, so i put it back together with the thought of rebuilding the engine when I would have money. But when I came home after work on tuesday I heard a knock so i shut the car off and put oil in it then i started it up and oil spewed out around the oil filter so thats when i decided to call it quits.

Your doing something wrong. Bottom line, 3800's don't just blow up that easily, and frequintly.

Did you put a new head gasket on it and use new bolts? If not then thats why you can't reuse a head gasket and the bolts are TTY.

Sounds like you should have bought a different GP if you knew it was bad to begin with IMO.

Ive had that happen. Had just enough oil pressure not to kill my motor.

Sure your oil pump didn't fail?

I don't see how. They are pretty fail proof. Not really anything to go wrong in them.
