ayenny02:Its risky to his health cos it could cause burns, besides, heat cooling of metals causes contraction which if not checked could cause microscopic hairline cracks which may lead to structural failure of the engine. 1 Like |

diportivo:The timing chain was noisy and we changed it, later it noisy again the mechanic said the oil pump is faulty and we changed it but the oil pump was not working, we need to change the oil pump for the second time and I told him to open it and do it quickly and he said the engine must cool before he can open it. That's what cause my question. |

ayenny02:if you open a hot engine, the two separate parts may cool at different rate causing Wapping of both surfaces. |

ironheart: no normal person would able to work on engine which is still hot so forget about wapping |
