Turbine oil and diesel oil can not be mixed, different engines have different lubrication requirements for oil. If motorists carelessly mix the two different lubricants, steam oil and diesel oil, they will not only cause unnecessary waste, but also shorten the service life of the engine.

What are the differences between engine oil and diesel oil?

Why not mix the two?

1. Different working conditions: different requirements for lubricants

Because gasoline engine vehicles mainly run in the city, often in the running environment of stop and start, which makes the engine oil easy to produce low-temperature sludge in the combustion process, it requires higher low-temperature sludge dispersion; while diesel engine vehicles often travel on the highway for a long time, with higher engine temperature and pressure, diesel engine oil is prone to produce a large amount of carbon deposit. This requires higher cleanliness.

2. Additives are different: diesel engine oil contains more additives

Compared with steam engine oil, diesel engine oil has higher alkali value. This is because diesel oil contains more sulfur, additives can prevent engine oil from oxidizing too fast, neutralizing acidic substances, and the requirements of engine oil are much simpler.

3. Viscosities are different: diesel engine oil has higher viscosities

Generally speaking, the viscosity of diesel oil is higher than that of steam oil. If gasoline engine uses diesel engine oil with higher viscosity level, it may cause engine temperature to be too high, which will deteriorate the oil, reduce the service life of the oil and cause certain wear and tear to the engine.

4. Different compression ratio: higher requirement for Corrosiveness of diesel engine oil

The compression ratio of diesel engine is about two times that of gasoline engine, and its components are more affected by high temperature than gasoline engine, which requires more stringent corrosiveness of lubricating oil.

After the above analysis, car friends should have known the reason why the engine oil and diesel oil can not be mixed. You can add Shengbao Road lubricant to your car according to the vehicle you own. It has good cleanliness and low temperature start-up performance. It also has excellent thermal stability and oxidation resistance, reduces engine damage and effectively prolongs the service life of the engine.
