Fatigued. The metallurgist showed the striation propagation, crack growth, typical of fatigue. The stud elongation caused it to lose torque. When I went to re-torque to stop the oil leak, the rema ...

The leak is between the blower and the power section. A couple of studs wouldn't take torque. Pulled the engine to replace the studs and found a zero time one in the meantime. Our metallurgist said ...
