Reasons for Oil Leakage in Superchargers
1 Answers
There are several specific reasons for oil leakage in superchargers: 1. Aging of oil seal gaskets. After years of driving, some components inevitably age. If the oil seal gasket ages, it can lead to oil leakage in the vehicle, and replacing the gasket should be considered. 2. Poor lubrication. If the lubrication inside the supercharger is inadequate, it can cause friction between components, leading to wear and oil leakage. Consider adding more engine oil or replacing the worn parts. 3. Damaged supercharger. If the vehicle is involved in a collision that damages the supercharger, oil leakage may also occur. Consider directly replacing the supercharger. (Note: The working mechanism of a car supercharger is to use electricity to efficiently direct air into the engine compartment in a short time, increasing the engine's compression ratio and accelerating fuel combustion efficiency to enhance power and reduce fuel consumption. Common superchargers on the market mainly include turbochargers and mechanical superchargers.)
