Worked on a Piper Pawnee that had a substance added to the fuel that
ruined the engine. It was a liquid that crystalized when it was
injected with the fuel into the hot cylinders. Ground the rings right
out, kinda like a screwed up Bon Ami breakin. Fortunately the pilot had
taxied to the end of his strip instead of just throwing the wood to it
right from the hanger, and the engine died when he turned around to
begin his takeoff. No I also wont reveal the substance used either.
