For these reasons, healthy levels of magnesium have been linked to deep, undisturbed sleep. Consequently, low levels of magnesium can contribute to frequent nighttime wakings. Magnesium deficiency has been linked to several insomnia-inducing conditions, including restless leg syndrome (RLS) and night terrors.
Scuffing is another condition that can damage pistons. Scuffing is often the result of overheating, but loss of lubrication, detonation and preignition can also be contributing factors. When an engine runs hot, the pistons swell. This reduces the clearance between the piston and cylinder walls. The cylinder bore can also distort adding to the problem.
As the piston in an engine moves down, a mixture of fuel and air gets drawn into the cylinder, which causes compression. This compression is ignited by the spark plugs, causing the exhaust valve to open to allow the burned fuel mixture to be sent to the exhaust system.
