What Causes Oil Sludge on Engine Surface?
1 Answers
Engine surface oil sludge is caused by: 1. Poor driving habits; 2. Improper car maintenance; 3. Low-quality engine oil; 4. Excessive clearance between piston rings and cylinder walls. Methods to clean oil sludge on engine surface include: 1. Using cleaning agents; 2. Disassembling the engine for cleaning. The impacts of oil sludge on engine surface are: 1. Reduced heat dissipation capability of the cylinder block, leading to excessive oil temperature and decreased engine power; 2. Increased resistance to oil flow, reduced oil flow rate, and impaired lubrication effectiveness; 3. Clogging of engine oil passages, resulting in insufficient lubrication between engine components.
