yes, Piston jamming is what I mean, be it due to rust, or whatever. Regarding Red line runs, I think it results in damage of Oil Restricting seal on the piston... The seal which protects oil from entering combustion area, as I read on Xbhp somewhere ...

but take my info with a pinch of salt, I'm not sure about it.

Can anyone share more info on this?
