Once upon a time I was ground running a RB211-524 when we ran out of oil , due to a leak and my inattention, and stopped the engine without cooling it down. It seized, and we could not restart it. We ended up changing it as the aircraft was required for service. The next day, the engine shop found no fault with it after it had cooled down!
