How Long Does It Take for Sugar in the Engine to Take Effect?
1 Answers
The specific time it takes to see effects depends on the amount of sugar added. However, it is not recommended to add sugar to the engine as it can cause damage. Below is an explanation of adding sugar to the engine: 1. Overview: The core of a car is its engine, and the engine oil serves a lubricating function. If sugar is added to reduce internal engine wear, the sugar will quickly melt under the engine's high operating temperature, thickening the oil passages. This will make the oil extremely viscous, leading to severe engine damage that may require major repairs. 2. Hazards: As a crystalline substance, sugar does not easily dissolve in engine oil. As the vehicle operates, the temperature in the cylinder gradually rises, causing the sugar to silently melt. This significantly increases the oil's viscosity, leading to engine "seizure" and preventing normal circulation and operation.
