Can Motorcycle Oil Be Used in Cars?
1 Answers
Motorcycle oil cannot be used in cars. The reasons are as follows: 1. The engine and transmission of a car are separate, while the transmission mechanism and engine of a motorcycle are integrated. Using motorcycle oil in a car may cause clutch slippage. 2. The additives in car oil and motorcycle oil are different. Additionally, the engine speed during car operation is much lower than that of motorcycles, resulting in slower oil oxidation and deterioration in cars. Therefore, the chemical additives in car oil (including those for luxury cars) are significantly less potent than those in motorcycle oil.
