[QUOTE="Bluke, post: 1344273, member: 15675"] E99 with 60K miles= Blown. The Options? next post will have pics of various blocks that have cracked at the cam/mains but an oil cooler failure can't put coolant or oil into a cylinder. Had the oil cooler failed, that cooler is containing two fluids. One is engine oil which is typically 20-60psi (dep on temp/rpm)...the other is coolant, which is max of 15-16psi. so....if the oil cooler ruptures internally, all the high(er) psi oil goes straight into the cooling system, as the oil pressure will overcome the lower coolant pressure. we can go back & forth with a million one-off scenarios of what if...what if...but in reality, the block cracked at the core shift casting line near the cam journals (see next post)...and then every unsupported reciprocating component (cam/crank/rods) went to eating itself up, and pushing bearings out. [url]http://www.powerstrokenation.com/forums/showthread.php?p=5166513[/url] This is from golfer from swamps over on psn. The pics didn't come with the quote. I'll try and get them. [/QUOTE]
