I heard if you overheat your engine the cam loaves will rise too much and make it lock up. True or false?

sorry, i got confused.

for a second i thought his car broke because he left his drain plug off after adding 5-quarts of UBER HIGH QUALITY MOBIL-1 SYNTHETIC MOTOR OIL


shame, the aforementioned would have been more socially acceptable. :(

That cr thread is a train wreck. Nothing's changed, go back to whatever you were doing.

Aircraft mechanic? Not likely.

And when he had taken some unleavened cams and given thanks, he broke them and gave them to the machine shop, saying, "This is my motor which is given for you; do this to make horsepower for me.
