What are the diesel engine oil grades?
1 Answers
Diesel engine oil grades include 0W, 5W, and 10W. Increased fuel consumption: When adding engine oil, the oil level should be between the upper and lower limits on the dipstick. If too much oil is added, the oil volume will expand as the engine temperature rises, increasing the pressure in the oil chamber and operational resistance. This can lead to reduced vehicle power and increased fuel consumption. Overfilling oil: Excessive oil can cause oil to leak through the crankcase vent pipe. Increased crankcase pressure may loosen the oil seals due to oil pressure, resulting in oil leaks. Heat dissipation: Overfilling oil can affect engine heat dissipation.
