1) Had cracked head gasket replaced, car sounded like a diesel when finished.
told to drive it 250 miles and then valves had to be adjusted.
Valves adjusted and still noisey, clicking but not as loud as originally.
Drove the car app 50 miles and it dies on me.
2) towed to repair and was told the cam shaft snapped behind timing gear and had to replace the cam and the gaskets again. Now car is quiet when running as when I originally brought it in for service.
Could the first repair (if not done properly) have caused the second issue/
Could an inproper adjustment have caused the CAM to snap?
Why would cause this to happen.
I appreciate your experitise
