car ruined...

It took me hell of time to get the car moving. Sadly, I only drove it for 2 mins before it was ruined and cannot be used. I stop the car and left the engine turned on to go for looting. the car is not working after i came back. hahaha... pls someone tell me about the car driving as it was the first time i drive
I checked all the engine parts shown pristine. only in car rpm with a red engine icon. I didnt put in too much water, not even half. Is that overheating or what?

ok, So I did fill motor oil and water in. I remember I filled in 2 bottle of motor oil, but I didnt fill in too much water. That is why the car spoiled, is it?

1 get all tires
2 get sparkplug, radiator and batery
3 get a gas can and fill upp the car with gas
4 fill up the radiator with water (fill it all the way)
5 fill the engine with engine oil (about 4 jugs of motor oil)

when you driver the car don't stepp out before comming to a complete stop and then stopping the engine( to be really safe put it in neutral also)
No it's not a joke they can be that sensitive....

So I put the car together and added gas. I fired it up and it started smoking, yellow engine symbol. So I put a jug of motor oil in. Then I turned it on and it ran for a minute and stopped. White smoke.

I went to get some water because I realized the radiator was a thing, and when I got back the car is gone, just the smoke effect in the air.

DID I SERIOUSLY SPEND ALL DAY FINDING PARTS FOR NOTHING????

you must fill at least 4 jug of oil untill you cannot fill up anymore. I did the same as the water in radiator. Then you can drive the car without any problems.
