14:10. What needs to be known, changing oil

GENERAL INFORMATION

First, old oil is recommended not only to allow to flow down, but also to move a bent shaft of the motor of 5-7 times to remove the remained oil from highways. It is useful even to wash out the engine, for this purpose make special oil for washing which to last 20–25 minutes, allowing the engine to work in the different modes.

Changing oil, it is always necessary to replace filters. Old, though washed out, will be as a fly in the ointment.

Oil should be changed indoors where there are no dust and wind.

When checking уровеня oils in a case the rag with which wipe the measuring instrument has to be pure. Even the insignificant particles of dust which got to the engine considerably reduce the term of its service.

When changing oil also laying a bolt of production of this oil or the case of the filter changes (if that is). It is included in the package of an oil filter.

Having changed oil, it is useful to celebrate the available car run, date of change, an oil grade that there were less problems at its following shift or additive.

It is not necessary to be afraid of the fact that oil after 1000 km of a run will turn black. It demonstrates that it correctly "works" – saves in itself a deposit, washes a surface of details.
