Default Prop position

Like what? Possibly, and I want to emphasize just possibly - a shelled
out camshaft system contaminating the crank bearings such that they
shrink onto the crankshaft on cooldown. An oil filter check (assuming
there is one) would also show if something is shelling out. Maybe even
just looking critically at the oil on the dipstick would show aluminum
or steel "paint" immediately after a shutdown.
