no oil in car?

[87grandnat]

went to start up my gn and heard a knocking noise coming from engine, got out and checked the oil and there is not any in there, obviously it is leaking oil from somewere, and i think its from more than one place, my question is what kind of oil should i put back in it and did that noise mean something is messed up, car only ran for about 1 min maybe 2 before i cut it off, thanks for any help

I'd drain what's left of the oil, change the oil filter and fill it with 5 quarts of 10w30 conventional oil. Unplug the orange ECM wire near the battery and crank the engine to build some pressure, then plug in the computer, cross your fingers and start it.

Hope it's ok...Jimmy
