Yes.
So which is cause and which is affect?
Does it just take RTV?
Does it take RTV and XXX?
Is the RTV a red herring and we are focusing on the totally wrong thing?
Can it happen on a track only even with no RTV?
There just simply is not enough data to say anything is "right" at this point no matter how many assumptions are being thrown around.
My career of 30 years has been built around correcting unexpected problems and I have not once been able to actually fix a thing based upon assumptions.
The situation get's even worse when there are people such as yourself (not a slam in any way) that are also emotionally involved and really, REALLY want something or somebody to focus on.
