* Bad oil pump: The oil pump could malfunction and create low pressure, thus not enough lubrication.
* Clogged oil filter: A clogged oil filter will prevent the oil from circulating properly, which can lead to overheating and seizure.
* Incorrect fuel mixture: If the fuel mixture is too lean, it can cause the engine to run too hot and seize.
* Overheating: If the engine overheats, the metal components will expand and seize. This can be caused by a number of factors, such as a faulty cooling system, a blocked radiator, or a lean fuel mixture.
* Broken timing belt or chain: If the timing belt or chain breaks, the pistons will no longer be synchronized with the valves and will hit them, causing the engine to seize.
* Mechanical failure: A mechanical failure, such as a broken connecting rod or piston, can also cause the engine to seize.
