Dude, First of all NEVER ever do this again.

A Toyota Corolla will give you the most outstanding quality in dependability and reliability, take care of your baby, consider this car as a sacred extension of your outer self


Anyways your oil was burnt, or used up inside your combustion chamber, you might not have realized it but your car might have been producing a black smoke coming out from it's exhaust while you were driving it. You should really not worry about any extensive problems that your car might have, although in the long run you might want to change your piston rings.


A simple advise on preventing your car from completely giving up:

1) Use a fewel cleaner or a fuel inline cleaner to add to your gas tank

2) When changing your oil, make sure to change the filter and replace the rubber bushing from the bolt in your oil pan.

3) Use a 10W-30 oil viscosity in your oil, (Best suggestion is to use Quaker State Semi Synthetic), four quarts of these babies and your set to go on the road again.
