I've seen this a lot in my career. An engine experiences hydrostatic lock. The fluid is removed from the cylinder and everything seems fine. Some time later, the engine fails. That's exactly what I believe happened to my Fairmont engine as I discuss in this video.

I hope you never suffer the same fate.
