What Problems Can Excessive Engine Oil Cause?
1 Answers
Excessive engine oil can cause: 1. Reduced engine power output; 2. Blue smoke from the exhaust pipe; 3. Issues such as piston ring seizure and fuel injector clogging; 4. Crankshaft explosion; 5. Oil leakage; 6. Increased wear and reduced lubrication performance; 7. Oil degradation, affecting performance. Method to check oil level: Open the engine compartment, locate the small-ringed dipstick near the engine, pull it upward, and check if the oil mark is between the upper and lower lines. Engine oil is the lubricant used in engines, composed of base oil and additives, serving functions such as lubrication and wear reduction, auxiliary cooling, sealing and leak prevention, rust and corrosion protection, and shock absorption.
