Add to the list wrong rubber gasket on the oil cooler blocking holes,
missing or incorrectly installed oil pressure bypass. Plastic dust seal plug
not removed when installing oil filter housing, Piece of shop towel left in
oil gallery when cleaning, or used to keep dust out, and not removed.
C'mon Loren, missing bearing? LOL!!
No key on intermediate puley, and loose bolt? Pulley was loosened in an
attempt to install T-belt?
It's endless almost.
How long have they ran the engine?
