“When I was in High School I decided to not add any oil to my oil-burner of a car with the theory if you don't add any, you can't burn any.......didn't work out of course, the engine seized....dumped a few quarts in and it recovered.


Wow. That is remarkable. Please elaborate. First and foremost, how you came to embrace that engineering theory, but then when it failed, how you managed to resurrect a seized, oil starved engine to recover, recover, simply by adding oil. Are there more details we should know? Sounds almost like an engineering miracle that many might like to make use of.
