Sorry to hear about your problem. As far as it's predictability,
I'm wondering about any warning smells shortly before your Direct Ignition cassette quit.
Your nose has experienced the catastrophy, and from the smells of burning oil, WAS THERE ANY HINT OFA SIMILAR SMELL IN THE FEW DAYS BEFORE?
ALSO DID IT SMELL LIKE BURNING OR HOT CREASOTE?
THE REASON I ASK IS THAT ON MY 1999 9-3, RECENTLY I EXPERIENCE A CREASOTE LIKE SMELL FOR A FEW MINUTES AFTER STARTUP. IT'S NOT IMMEDIATE BUT ABOUT A MINUTE OR TWO AFTER STARTUP.(ABOUT THE TIME IT TAKES TO GET THE HEAD WARMED UP AND MAKE OIL FUMES OUT OF ANY LEAKED OIL ON THE HEAD). ANY RESPONSE WILL BE APPRECIATED.
PERHAPS, ALSO, WE CAN CATALOG ANY WARNING SIGNS OF DI IMPENDING FAILURE.
