What are the consequences of complete engine oil leakage in a car?
1 Answers
Hazards of oil leakage: Insufficient oil can easily cause bearing seizure, cylinder scoring, and in severe cases, may lead to crankshaft breakage and engine block damage. Excessive oil will affect the car's power and is also prone to oil blow-by and oil burning. Causes of engine oil leakage in cars: 1. Poor product (accessory) quality, material, or workmanship. 2. Improper assembly, unclean mating surfaces, damaged or displaced gaskets, or failure to follow installation procedures. 3. Uneven tightening torque of fastening nuts, stripped threads, or loose connections leading to operational failure. 4. Wear beyond limits, aging, deterioration, or deformation failure of sealing materials after long-term use.
