Can the Oil Filter Be Used Multiple Times?
1 Answers
The oil filter cannot be reused. The oil filter used in cars is designed to filter out impurities from the engine oil. Every time the engine oil is changed, the oil filter must also be replaced. Reusing the oil filter will contaminate the newly replaced oil, which can have a certain impact on the engine. During the use of the oil filter, if the filter becomes clogged, the resistance of the filter will increase, causing the oil to flow less smoothly during lubrication, which can also affect the normal operation of the engine. More details are as follows: 1. The oil filter has a replacement cycle, which depends on the quality of the oil used in the engine. If mineral oil is used, it is recommended to replace the oil filter every 5,000 kilometers; 2. If semi-synthetic oil is used, it is recommended to replace it approximately every 6,500 kilometers; if full-synthetic oil is used, it is recommended to replace it every 10,000 kilometers.
