do you like caramel candies? The process of caramelization consists of
heating sugar slowly to around 170 °C (340 °F). As the sugar melts,
the molecules break down and re-form into compounds with a
characteristic color and flavor. This is what happens in your car
engine in the presence of sugar. You are producing caramel candies in
your engine :-)

What's with you guys???
Are there no real physicists in this group?

Can't anyone here get beyond foolish speculation?

"Carmelizing" is good, but now we need explanation of the parts that are
affected. The Piston Ring is a good start..

I suspect (no proof) that the most vulerable spot is the seat of al rings in
their slot on the side of all pistons. Carmelized sugar will "glue" the
rings to the sides of their slots in a retraced (inner) position. This
position will result in the *least* amount of (very poor) compression when
running. It also allows oil to run up into the combustion chambers to be
burned or thrown out the exnaust.

The engine "death" then would be slow, where it may run, but produces less
and less propulsion power while burning more and more oil. Anyone pushing
that engine to "get home" would end up frustrated, or with an burned out
engine (used up all oil and burned the bearings), or both.

Any eyewitness accounts?
