What Causes Engine Oil Emulsification?
1 Answers
Engine oil emulsification is caused by water mixing into the oil. The specific reasons and solutions are as follows: The causes of water entering the engine oil are: 1. Cracked water cavity in the heat exchanger leading to water leakage into the oil. 2. Poor sealing of the cylinder head or cracked water cavity, loose sealing of the cylinder liner water jacket, cylinder liner cavitation, allowing water from the combustion chamber to enter the oil. Emulsified oil will have reduced oil film strength, failing to meet the lubrication requirements of the engine, and thus needs to be replaced. The solutions for engine oil emulsification are: 1. Clean the engine and replace the oil. 2. Clean the air filter chamber, exhaust pipe, carburetor, and exhaust joint. 3. Fill the engine with kerosene, repeatedly start and shut off the engine, ensuring the burning time does not exceed 30 seconds, then replace with new kerosene.
