Car oil is a lubricating fluid that functions so that engine components do not collide with each other so that the car engine can work smoothly. For that, you need to choose the right car oil so that your car engine stays healthy and keeps running smoothly. Along with use, car oil will receive a number of residues from the combustion process, in the form of metal flakes resulting from friction between components in the engine, and dirt from combustion. These impurities are commonly known as grams. Well, it is this dirt that settles and makes the car oil thicken. If you have this, automatically the oil lubrication ability is no longer optimal and can have a bad impact on the engine's internal components, such as cylinder walls, camshafts, pistons, and crankshafts. You must be able to choose the right car oil so that the car engine feels very prime. Here are the tips:
When you have a new car, you definitely get the manual. From the manual, you can find out all the information about the car. Through the manual, you can also find out the right car oil and according to the recommendations from the manufacturer. After knowing the engine and car specifications, you can know the right car oil. You need to remember, the right car oil is oil that matches the engine and also has good quality.
You need to know the viscosity of car oil because every car engine has different specifications. The viscosity of the oil is indicated by the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) number. Usually, car oil that has a thicker concentration is indicated by a larger number behind the SAE code. For example, if you find that the oil-coded SAE 20W-50 is thicker than the oil-coded SAE 10W-40.
Currently, there are many car oils on the market, but the materials used are also different. For that, you need to know the type of material that is often used for making car oil. There are two types of materials used for its manufacture, the first is a synthetic material made from chemicals. Then, the second ingredient is material from petroleum.
You need to be careful with this fake car oil because currently there are so many on the market. You also don't get tempted easily because fake car oil is sold at a cheaper price but the quality provided is not good. To find out its characteristics is quite easy. Usually, fake car oil is a bit darker in color and has a rancid smell.
However, usually over time, the quality of car oil decreases so you need to replace it regularly. Sometimes even though the car owner already knows if the car oil needs to be changed regularly, there are still owners who do not regularly change the car oil for various reasons. As a result, it affects the performance of the car itself.
