If someone had their hands in my face like that in real life, it wouldn't take long before they'd get a good hard slap.

My same concerns I voiced earlier, almost verbatim. It almost seems there is a greater chance of the dealership fucking up your motor due to shoddy work than there is of the spring actually...

And that's where we disagree. My experience with vehicle fires leads me to believe that right conditions could absolutely exist here, and do so rather commonly. And honestly, all that needs to be...

And here comes the **** swinging... :rolleyes: I'm not the one with the condescending post about 'the basics physics of fire'. This isn't a bucket of grease in the driveway with a match thrown on...

I've been a volunteer member of our local fire department since 1983, so am pretty well acquainted with how fire works, to include engine fires. Fuel system failure as a secondary source to the...

An oil leak would start slowly, and could then easily escalate to a catastrophic fuel leak and explosion when the high pressure fuel system failed suddenly from the oil fire. And lets remember - the...

Apparently no one here has seen engines catch fire from leaks...lol. Whatever...the point is that an oil leak would still be a technician problem, same as if too much glue was used and caused oil...

Popping hood could easily be fuel system failure and explosion/ignition after the initial fire started, and loss of traction simply means ABS/ESC system had failed/melted from the same fire. From...

Actually, my money would be on a slow-ish oil leak that eventually caught fire, and then the rest of the underhood domino effect as the fire spread.. An oil leak could hide for weeks or even months...

Not that it'll ever be done, but I bet that motor was torn down, it'd be completely fine internally (aside from massive overheating...). None of the description the poster provided sounds like...
