Hey guys, I just tore down a customer's engine out of a base model '91
coupe
that was experiencing no-starts and burning water.  The motor had only
about
50 miles on it prior to being rebuilt w/ all new seals, springs,
bearings,
and o-rings (TES inner water jacket o-rings).  The owner unfortunately
overheated it shortly thereafter and cooked the motor.  I am unsure how
hot
the factory gauge in the vehicle reads scale-wise, but the needle was
"all
the way to the top" according to the owner.

Brian,
How the hell did he do that!!?
