“On november 27, 2019 I was driving back to my office after completion of a chimney job when my motor went with only 73,660. I then had to have my vehicle towed and that's when my mechanic pulled the valve covers and discovered a broken valve spring that had caused it to drop the valve into the piston which then caused the coolant and oil to mix. In return, this caused a catastrophic failure to the engine. At that point the engine was pulled. It was also noted that the side of the engine block was cracked and bent the oil pan. …”
