Problem: MISMACHINING OF LOWER CRANKCASE HAS CAUSED THE OIL FILTER CASE TO BE POSITIONED INCORRECTLY. THIS MISALIGNMENT STRESSES THE OIL AND WATER PUMPS AND COULD CAUSE ONE OR THE OTHER TO FAIL.
Risk: FAILURE OF THE OIL PUMP OR WATER PUMP DRIVES COULD CAUSE EXTENSIVE INTERNAL ENGINE DAMAGE AND FAILURE DUE TO LACK OF LUBRICATION OR COOLING WHICH COULD RESULT IN LOSS OF VEHICLE CONTROL.
Fix: CORRECT LOWER CRANKSHAFT MISMACHINING TO PREVENT ENGINE DAMAGE.
