How Much Engine Oil Should Be Added?
1 Answers
It should be between the marks on the oil dipstick, preferably below the upper limit of the oil level. The functions of engine oil include: As a lubricant: Reducing friction and wear between moving parts. As a coolant: Absorbing heat generated in the engine combustion chamber and piston top, cooling the engine. As a sealant: Filling the gap between piston rings and cylinder liners to prevent combustion pressure leakage. As a cleaner: Preventing pollutants and oxide impurities generated during combustion from adhering to the engine interior, maintaining cleanliness. As a rust inhibitor: Neutralizing acidic substances produced by combustion gases, preventing engine rust and corrosion.
