That's some crazy ****, every other overheated engine I've ever seen had the piston get too tight in the bore, causing it to score then seize. Since, yah know, alum expands faster and more than fe and pistons are usually alum and cylinders are usually fe.

As far as I can tell nobody and no thing is screwing with the injection timing.
