💡Motor oil lubricates car engines and reduces friction and heat
🔍Different types of motor oil include conventional, synthetic, synthetic blends, and high mileage oil
🌡️The viscosity of motor oil determines its thickness, which is important for different climates
⚙️The new gf6 standard for motor oil improves fuel economy and engine capabilities
🚫Common myths about motor oil include the need for thicker oil for wear protection and the belief that all additives are the same
How often should I change my motor oil?
—The frequency of oil changes depends on factors such as vehicle age, oil type, driving habits, and environmental conditions. It is best to follow the recommendations in your car's owner's manual.
Is synthetic oil better than conventional oil?
—Synthetic oil offers better performance and protection for engines, especially in extreme temperatures. However, it is important to use the oil viscosity recommended by the engine manufacturer.
Does motor oil additives improve engine performance?
—Motor oil additives are designed to enhance certain aspects of engine performance and protection. However, they cannot add horsepower or improve gas mileage.
Can I switch back to conventional oil after using synthetic oil?
—Yes, it is possible to switch between synthetic and conventional oil. However, it is recommended to consult your car's manufacturer and follow their recommendations.
Do I need to change the oil filter every time I change the oil?
—It is generally recommended to change the oil filter whenever you change the oil. The filter helps remove dirt and impurities from the oil, ensuring better engine performance and longevity.
