2003 Chevy Impala

Someone put paint in or stain in an oil bottle and I changed the oil in my car and poured it in my car where the oil goes I drove the car about 60 miles and it started running funny and the oil light came on and I checked the oil and it looked like glue,or gum or something on the dip stick so I left my car over night and now its locked up it wont do anything. What can I do? Is there something that will break it down so I can drain it?

Remove the plugs, squirt some oil down each cylinder, see if you can get the engine to rotate.

Then put an engine flush in car, run for 5 minutes at idle and change oil.

If you cannot get engine to rotate, then squirt engine flush in plug hole and try to rotate.
