What causes an engine to require rebuilding?
Mostly wear is what causes an engine to require rebuilding. When the pistons, cylinders, crankshaft and other critical items wear past their useful service, the engine gets sloppy. It will burn a lot of oil and not maintain oil pressure. That will lead to major engine damage and then it will be an engine replacement. In some cases, an engine replacement can be cheaper than a rebuild and they usually come with a better warranty.
