external oil leakage (Dieselpartsworld) 2016-02-28    

The 40 reason engine burning oil "
Different engines have the numerical value of normal oil consumption, normal consumption of different engine type oil quantity is different. For example, Ford Motor Co's oil consumption limit is 0.56 liters / thousand kilometers, and for diesel engines for trucks, many manufacturers are required: 2.24 liters / million kilometers below is normal. The following list engine "burn" oil, used for automobile repair encountered "high oil consumption", "burn" the problem of reference oil.
1 external oil leakage
Oil leakage for a number of reasons, including: oil pipeline, the oil discharge outlet and the oil pan gasket, valve chamber cover gasket, gasket, oil pump, fuel pump gasket, timing chain cover sealing and the cam shaft seal. More than likely leakage factors can not be ignored, because even a small leak will lead to a large number of oil consumption. For example, every 6 seconds to leak a drop, mean 0.56 litres of oil consumption per hundred kilometers. Leak detection is the best way to put a light in the engine at the bottom of the cloth, start the engine after the view. Through the distribution of oil droplets on the position can determine the position of leakage.
2 front and rear oil seal failure
Before and after the main bearing seal damage will lead to oil leakage. The only engine operating with load can be found. The main bearing oil seal must be replaced after abrasion, because as oil leakage, will cause leakage of high.
