WOW Look what engine oil we use.

I know its in Russian but you can understand the experiment going on to check wich oil is best. Apparently all of them are junk rubbish (Castrol, Shell etc..)

And look what Bardahl oil can do and how awesome it is. Just WOW

OIL !

OK
There are at least couple of things that should be noted, I'll just mention ONE.

If our engine components would be experiencing fiction as such, there we would be in no way be able to achieve 10,000 kms not to mention 100,000 kms


Our engines are design to work with oil pressure which produces oil film.
That in effect is the only thing between oil bearings , connecting rods, and pistons themselves. Oil is a vital lubricant ( medium ), that is pressurized, and holds everything in suspension.
In energy powerplants ( nuclear ) huge turbines ( 100 tons ) are literally suspended on just oil pressure alone, and they last years before any service to the bearings.

To sum it all up oil in our engines has to do two things mainly, one of them is to suspend crankshaft and then to ensure lubrication to the rest of the vital components. Taking away the heat is on of the additional duties assigned to oil.

Hopefully this will put some light on the subject.

For the time being please go about your normal routine, and change your regular ( synthetic ) oil, at your given intervals, you'll be just fine...
Cheers

The engine oil really effective. There are many students facing problem with their academic papers. The term paper writing services helps them to complete their works.
