How to Fix Engine Oil Burning?
2 Answers
Replace the original metal friction with soft metal or other special materials adhered to the friction surface, which enhances sealing on one hand and protects the original metal friction surface on the other. Metal forging forms a new friction surface on the original one through internal high temperature and pressure during engine operation, strengthening sealing and protecting the original friction surface.
I've encountered the issue of burning oil several times, which is common in the older cars I've driven. The cause is usually worn piston rings or aging valve stem seals, allowing oil to seep into the combustion chamber and burn. Not only does the exhaust emit blue smoke, but the car also becomes less fuel-efficient and loses power. Fixing it is quite troublesome—you have to disassemble the engine for inspection. Minor issues like bad seals can be resolved by replacing them, but serious cases require changing the piston rings or even overhauling the engine, which takes time and money. When I repaired my old Ford, replacing the piston rings and adding fresh oil solved the problem. Daily prevention is also key: use high-quality oil with the correct viscosity and avoid prolonged high-speed driving. Regularly checking the oil level and quality can save you from major repairs. If you notice any signs of oil burning, act immediately to prevent worsening—safety first.
