    Oil contamination

    Where would it be possible for coolant to make its way into the engine oil system? I know a bad head gasket could cause this but are there any other areas this could occur? Like a poorly sealed intake manifold?. I’m not familiar with the oil and coolant pathways and where they could be...

    Phase lock

    I’m about to install a cam but I haven’t been able to find much info on phase lock/limiters. I know the phaser itself kinda resembles a centrifugal clutch and I’m assuming that advanced/retards vale timing somehow? Does a phase lock just keep that from happening? And is this just a feature of...
