They flatly denied any warranty whatsoever because of the tremendous amount of neglect the car had been put through.
They both lifted the valve cover of and nearly got their fingers bit by the Dinosaurus jumping out (mechanic term when oil is so old it have turned into dinosaurus again)
The amount of crude sitting inside the whole engine is not done overnight, and defenitly not by something grenading inside, but accumulating over years and miles with no oil changes.
