| When engine overheat for a long time. Oil lubrication on cylinder was burnt dry that result of stuckup piston and intake/exhaust valve unable to move freely. This will cause breakdown of connecting rod and valves, cylinder heads and piston. Install Temperature gauge with overheat alarm to avoid this problem. |
