Is Engine Oil Burning a Must-Repair Issue?
1 Answers
Engine oil burning must be repaired. The causes of engine oil burning and preventive measures are as follows: Causes of engine oil burning: Valve oil seal: The valve's function is to prevent oil from leaking into the combustion chamber. Long-term use can corrode and age the valve oil seal, affecting its sealing performance and leading to oil burning. Driving habits: Habitual rapid acceleration and prolonged high-speed driving can damage the lubricating oil, resulting in poor engine lubrication, wear on certain parts, and oil burning. Oil quantity: Carbon deposits accumulate in the piston grooves, causing the piston rings to stick together and preventing them from sealing completely. This reduces the oil-scraping and sealing capability. Sludge can clog the oil return holes, preventing oil from returning normally. A clogged oil filter can also increase oil consumption. Clogged air filter: This leads to poor air intake, reduced intake pressure, and the formation of negative pressure, which draws oil into the combustion chamber under negative pressure, causing oil burning. Measures to prevent oil burning: Use high-quality engine oil: Premium oil provides excellent lubrication, cleaning performance, and stability. Maintain fuel system cleanliness: Use high-quality fuel additives to keep the fuel system clean. Perform regular vehicle maintenance: Change the engine oil and oil filter at regular intervals.
