The use of oil in the vehicle is very important needs in the lubrication system. The oil not only serves for the lubrication of the engine, but also necessary for the lubrication of gearbox, four-wheel, power steering and other car components that require lubrication.
The primary use of oil is to lubricate and cool the components that move and become hot due to movement or friction that occurs. Beside that, oil also serves to clean up the grime remains of burning and others. Uses or functions of the oil have the same level of effectiveness and there is nothing at all that can be ignored.
Direct contact that occurs between components of a mechanism that is experiencing movement or friction can cause negative effects. This is very detrimental and could have an impact to the other parts. The intended negative effect among others is the onset of heat, loss of energy, wear and tear and damage the engine. Therefore some general and viscosity oil in the engine and the possibility of oil leakage is very important to always be aware of.
Actual vehicle oil replacement time has been determined by the manufacturer of the oil in the manual book and service manual that has been created. Generally the manufacturer specifies the time the replacement of oil after a distance of 5000 kilometers.
But in fact is rarely based on car owner's manual or service manual eBook. They better keep the suggestions from the workshop through the card services, namely oil replacement time set every crossroads 2000 kilometers.
In fact the limitations specified kilometers should ideally be based on the use of the vehicle, the type of machine, road conditions, the type of fuel and the quality of the oil itself. To extend the lifetime of the oil can be done by way of a notice also her treatment as replacement filter oil every 10,000 kilometers. Filter the oil for too long do not fit snugly can also cause a lifetime of oil so shorter or faster.
The decline in the quality of the oil can also be caused by dilution or gasoline that does not burn infiltrated the oil. Oil leaks can occur due to compression in the crankcase is too high.
The symptoms, as if oil is leaking from any angle machines. The reason is because the piston rings are worn, causing blow by from the crankcase to the combustion chamber, so that the oil bursts into all the loose seal.
Besides ring piston crankcase ventilation holes may be worn out also clogged. Oil leak could also come from the lid, cover, a.k.a. timing chain or top side of the crankcase. To cope with this kind of thing is easy, which is enough to replace the gasket leaking. Tightening the bolts can be a little help, but it would be nice if the gasket is replaced.
