Lubrication

Engine Sludge – The top 2 ways, to stop or slow down, Engine oil sludge.

03/08/2022

Engine sludge, forms as engine oil oxidizes and breaks down; leaving behind deposits recognized as, engine sludge. Engine oils break down, during oxidation and combines with dirt, fuel, metallic particles, water, gases, and coolant. So, […]

Valve Stem Seal - Controls oil consumption, while lubricating valve stems.
Engine Top End

Valve Stem Seal – Controls oil consumption, while lubricating valve stems.

03/01/2022

The purpose of the valve stem seal is, to prevent the oil from the cylinder head; entering the combustion chamber. So, the valve stem seal, plays a critical role in, controlling valve lubrication, as well […]

Fuel Getting Into Engine Oil - Causing premature wear of engine parts.
Fuel System

Fuel Getting Into Engine Oil – Causing premature wear of engine parts.

02/22/2022

So, fuel getting into engine oil is bad, because it lowers the lubricating qualities of the oil. Furthermore, reducing the engine oil viscosity, causing the oil to thin out to a dangerous level. Therefore, this […]
