A.P.I. Ratings
SA Straight mineral oil no additives.
SB 1930s motor oil with some detergent.
SC 1950s oil more additives.
SD 1960s enter multi-viscosity oils.
SE 1970s emission controls make heat is problem.
SF 1980s improves fuel economy.
SG Late 1980s wider viscosity ranges.
SH 1990s great stuff.
SJ Late 1990s
SM Current

Oil Changes
Oil Change
frequency:
Every 25 -30
hours.


11
Oil Contamination
Blow-by gases add raw
gasoline and water to the oil
causing deterioration.
Excessive heat can cause
thermal breakdown.
Excessive cranking can
dilute oil with gasoline.
Cooling gasket leaks will ruin
oil causing sludge.
12
Things That Make Oil Deteriorate
Faster
Short distance driving.
(which is most trips)
Extensive idling.
Cold weather operation.
Excessive heavy loads
Dirty and dusty
conditions.
Additive Packages of motor oil
Anti oxidant and anticorrosive agent
Detergent dispersant
Extreme pressure additives
Pour point depressor
Viscosity index improver
Antifoam agent
Oiliness and film strength agent

Proper Oil Disposal
Waste motor oil is a
controlled waste.
Be sure to properly
dispose of.
Oil filters too!
15
Changing Oil
Find the drain
plug and
remove it.
Catch the
waste oil and
dispose of it
properly.
Dont forget to
reinstall the
plug.
16
Oil Pumps
Gear types
Rotor
Gerotor type
All oil pumps use a pick-up screen in the pan and a pressure regulator.
17
Oil Filters
Micro-porous paper
filters used to screen out
particles.
Most filters of the
cartridge type.
18
Oil Filter Systems
Remove harmful materials
19
Bypass Systems
Part of oil to filter > pan
Part to bearings
20
Full Flow Filter Systems
All oil goes through
filter
21
Oil Level and Pressure Indicators
Dipstick the most
simple
Some engines
equipped with an
electrical level
indicator.
Oil pressure
indicator lamp
Oil pressure gauge
(electrical or
mechanical)
22
Refilling Motor Oil
Find crankcase
capacity in one of
the following
references:
Owners manual?
Service manual.
Repair manual.
Computerized
specification system.
23
Replacing Filter and Pan Gasket
Buy a filter kit which
gives you a new filter
and gasket.
Treat used tranny filters
as you would an oil filter.
Crankcase Ventilation
Open system
Closed crankcase ventilation
