Is Lovol Power a Perkins Engine?
2 Answers
Lovol Power is a Perkins engine. Precautions for using automobile engines are as follows: Avoid driving in neutral gear: The engine itself has a fuel-cut function during deceleration, and driving in neutral is not conducive to fuel economy. Pay attention to observation when using the vehicle: If oil is found on the ground, determine whether there is an engine oil leak, and communicate with the car 4S store in time to eliminate potential safety hazards. Do not turn off the engine immediately: For cars equipped with turbochargers, do not turn off the engine immediately after high-speed driving or climbing. Let the engine idle for 10 minutes before turning it off. Cars with turbochargers form carbon deposits several times faster than ordinary naturally aspirated cars.
I've worked on quite a few diesel engines, and Lovol Power and Perkins are definitely not the same company. Lovol is a domestic Chinese brand, mainly used in agricultural machinery and trucks, known for its affordable price and easy maintenance. Perkins is a historic British brand, now owned by Caterpillar. Some people might confuse them because certain domestic engine designs have borrowed from Perkins technology, but they're independent brands with different part specifications. When repairing a Lovol engine with oil burning issues, you'll need to look up domestic parts; Perkins parts are easier to find but cost more than double. Never use the wrong parts, or you might damage the engine.
