The oil jet cooling nozzles may be damaged. Failure to cool the crankshaft and/or pistons can cause damage to them and result in the engine stalling. This can lead to a hole forming in the engine casing, causing oil leaks onto the exhaust pipe. This can cause a fire to start in the engine compartment, causing the vehicle to catch fire.
