    Hi

    Changed oil today, 10w40, part synthetic in my 99' 1.1 Saxo. Oil filter replaced too. Started the engine and new oil started to squirt! It's squirting probably from radiator! What's going on? Almost whole oil went out!

    Can't see how you're getting oil out of the radiator unless you've breached the water/oil chambers (head gasket gone, etc.) - where's the water from the rad/cooling system gone by the way?

    If the oil filter isn't on properly it'll squirt everywhere, including the radiator!

    So why oil is squirting there but not in oil filter area? I just thought, oil can squirt not from radiator, but from hole of air intake which is located near radiator.

    I think you may have desturbed the rockets and caused them to deploy resulting in holes in your engine

    It was all a joke ..... or maybe you just realised that you did actually put oil in your radiator and don't want to admit it ... either way good luck with your "friend"
