I read your original post last week, as well as the entire first page. While these oil-related stories in some cases have taken on a life of their own via the Internet, the common thread with all these oil related failure stories is that they are all hearsay. Even if pictures are included, there's no evidence that what is being claimed as the reason(s) why any engine failed, is actually why they failed. When it comes right down to it, there is no preponderance of proof present to believe any of them. One way or the other.
