Anyone remember the Cadillac 4-6-8?




yeah--a true POS. I used to work on those turds.



Worse than Caddy's HT4100 aluminum block abomination? You know, the
"let's leak coolant into the oil" engine?


The 4100 was another POS that leaked coolant into the oil because of the
ridiculously long intake manifold bolts that were underneath the valve
covers. Almost no one bothered to retorque them and hence the leaks.
I'd find many of the bolts so loose upon disassembly that I could remove
them with my fingers.
