Reply to "Engine Bearing Failure Analysis"

Hi Perry, hence my interest in that over-loaded area. Oil film thickness has been breeched, and I have reservation (based upon the little information so far)that it was to do with oil viscosity (unless there was severe fuel dilution?), so what is causing the extra loading - duty cycle, improper timing, lots of start/stops, what??? The bearing material looks to be ok metallurgically-wise, and I don't believe it to be oil starvation as there would be other information identifiable with that cause-effect.
