That describes a hole burned thru a piston, more-so than an injector.

running the engine with 260+F, overheating oil temps will certainly cause a piston to get a hole burned right thru it. So again, .. if some complete dumbar#se told you to run it with an overheating oil system, .. then that can absolutely cause catestrophic damage like that!.


I HOPE LIKE ALL H#ELL you don't let them work on it!!. especially if they gave you that bad advice.. and you might even have grounds for a lawsuit on your hands if they did the work.. and you voiced your concerns properly right away ... and they proceeded to tell you to run it with the oil system overheating like that! ... But especially so, if they installed the new coolers, and forgot / left out the damn thermostat!!.
