Why Does the Civic Experience Engine Oil Dilution?
1 Answers
Civic's engine oil dilution occurs when gasoline vapor enters the crankcase and mixes with the engine oil, causing the oil level to rise. Below is a partial introduction to the Civic. 1. First-generation Civic: On July 11, 1972, the first-generation Civic was launched. One of its hatchback variants featured a uniquely designed separately-opening trunk. The powertrain utilized Honda's EB-series 1.2L 2-valve inline-four engine producing 60 horsepower and 93 N·m of torque, paired with a 4-speed manual transmission. 2. Second-generation Civic: In July 1979, the second-generation Civic debuted, primarily available in 1300 and 1500 mainline models. These were powered by 1.3L (68hp) and 1.5L (80hp) engines respectively, both incorporating improved second-generation CVCC technology. 3. Third-generation Civic: On September 22, 1983, the third-generation Civic emerged. This generation placed greater emphasis on cabin space, with the 3-door hatchback's 2380mm wheelbase exceeding the previous 5-door version by 60mm. Japanese-market 1.3L models produced 80hp (71hp for European versions), while 1.5L variants delivered 100hp and 86hp respectively.
