Yeah, duh, I think I got that figured out, the real question is how does a camshaft break when a car is just started up, after I've have virtually no problem with this car for 4.5 years, the new owners have it 8 days and the motor is locked up. A broken cam is highly unlikely, they've been making cams for 150 years and this would seem to be a very low probability as to the cause. But then this was a "guess" by some mechanic who may or may not be on the mark. Only time will tell when we get it torn down.
