Tiggo 8 oil emulsification solution is: First, replace the engine oil. Before replacement, clean the engine, including the exterior, air filter chamber, waste gas pipe, engine, and carburetor. Also, inspect the exhaust joint. When cleaning the engine interior, if possible, open the right cover to clean the engine oil sump. If not, fill the engine with kerosene, start the engine, and then turn it off. Repeat this process twice, ensuring the burning time does not exceed 30 seconds. Then, replace with new kerosene and repeat the process. Chery Tiggo 8 is an automobile brand under Chery Automobile Co., Ltd., with body dimensions of 4700mm in length, 1860mm in width, and 1746mm in height.
I've been driving the Tiggo 8 for several years, and the issue of oil emulsification has been a real headache. The first time I noticed white foam in the oil cap, resembling a milky color, I was so anxious that I broke out in a sweat. Later, I learned that this occurs when water mixes in, commonly due to aging cylinder head gaskets or coolant leaking into the oil tank. When dealing with it, I first parked the car in a safe spot, waited for the engine to cool, and then checked the oil dipstick and coolant levels. If the emulsification is severe, don't start the engine—call a tow truck immediately to take it to a professional shop. The mechanic replaced the cylinder head gasket and cleaned the system, costing me a few hundred yuan to fix. On a daily basis, I make sure to avoid frequent short trips, as warming up the engine helps prevent condensation and keeps the lubricant dry. Regular maintenance is key—change the oil every 5,000 kilometers to prevent small issues from turning into big problems.
