Five major causes of engine wear and their solutions PART 1

2024-01-24

The engine is the heart of a car, and its wear and tear directly affect the performance and lifespan of the car. This article will provide a detailed analysis of the five major causes of engine wear and provide corresponding solutions to help car owners better protect the engine and extend its service life.
1、 Corrosion and wear
combustion chamber, fuel will produce many harmful substances, which can cause corrosion to the cylinders and lead to engine wear. In addition, acidic substances can also corrode metals, thereby exacerbating engine wear.
Solution:
Use high-quality engine oil: High quality engine oil can form a protective film, reducing corrosion to the engine. It is recommended that car owners choose the oil that is suitable for their vehicle model and replace it regularly.
Regular engine cleaning: Regular engine cleaning can remove carbon deposits and acidic substances, reducing corrosion to the engine. When cleaning, pay attention to using professional engine cleaning agents and avoid using strong acidic and alkaline cleaning agents.


2、 Rust and wear
When the engine operates at high temperatures, it is easy to produce water vapor and oxides, which can cause rust and corrosion of the engine, thereby exacerbating wear.
Solution:
Using rust inhibitor: Adding an appropriate amount of rust inhibitor when changing engine oil can prevent engine rust.
Regular inspection of the cooling system: Ensure the normal operation of the cooling system, prevent engine overheating, and reduce the production of oxides. Car owners should regularly check the concentration and circulation of the coolant, and replace the coolant in a timely manner.

3、 Strong wear caused by dust
Dust and impurities entering the engine can accelerate piston and cylinder wear, leading to a decrease in engine performance.
Solution:
Using an air filter: Regularly replacing the air filter can reduce the entry of dust and impurities into the engine. It is recommended that car owners regularly replace the air filter based on the usage of the vehicle.
Keep the vehicle clean: Regularly clean the exterior and chassis of the vehicle to prevent dust and impurities from entering the engine. At the same time, pay attention to keeping the car interior clean and avoid dust and debris entering the engine.
