How to Determine if the Engine is Burning Oil

[DeBraxton]

Here are the methods to determine if the engine is burning oil: 1. During maintenance, fill the engine oil to the upper limit line. Check the oil level at the next maintenance cycle. If it is below the lower limit without any oil seepage or leakage, it indicates oil burning. 2. When the vehicle is in motion or idling, if a large amount of blue smoke is emitted from the exhaust pipe when the driver abruptly steps on the accelerator, this indicates a severe oil burning condition, known as acceleration oil burning. 3. In addition to blue smoke from the exhaust pipe, pulsating blue smoke can also be observed coming from the oil filler port. In this case, it indicates that the engine damage is already very serious.
