My son fill his engine with the require oil level about 15 min after driving, he lose all oil. Where do this problem come from. It does not leaks around the block, pan gasket, drain plug or filter housing.

Hi: If I had to guess, I would say by accident he the old gasket stuck on the engine and when he replaced the filter with the new one, it double gasketed. This is an easy mistake to make. Remove the filter and check if there are two gaskets. If so, remove the one from the block and make sure one is still on the new filter. Get another new filter and replace it. Make sure the oil is full.
