How to Solve Engine Oil Burning Without Major Overhaul?
1 Answers
Engine oil burning issue cannot be completely resolved without major overhaul for a car. Here are the relevant explanations: 1. Causes: Engine oil burning is caused by wear and aging of piston rings and valve stem seals. Valve stem seals can be replaced without disassembling the engine, but piston rings require engine disassembly for replacement. Therefore, the oil burning issue cannot be completely solved without major overhaul. 2. Oil Additives: There are some products specifically designed for oil burning on the market, called oil additives. These additives can increase the viscosity of engine oil, making it harder for oil to pass through piston rings and valve stem seals into the combustion chamber, suitable for engines with mild oil burning conditions.
