Diesel Oil and Engines

Diesel oil serves several different roles in a diesel engine. While it cools and cleans the engine as it cycles over the many parts, oil's main responsibility is to adequately lubricate the engine. As an engine runs through its combustion cycle, oil travels over and throughout the metal parts of the engine, providing a layer of lubrication that prevents the parts from grinding against one another. Consequently, the oil prevents additional heat from being generated by the engine, and actually cools the engine by transferring heat throughout the engine.

Unique Properties of Diesel Engine Oil

Diesel engine oil is different from the oil that is used in gasoline engines. Diesel engines differ from gasoline engines in how they ignite air and fuel in the cylinders. Diesel oil is thicker than regular oil because of the increased heat that diesel engines produce from combustion. While diesel engine oil is somewhat tougher than regular engine oil, it is still important for you to have a diesel engine oil change when it is time.

Different types of diesel oils last longer than others. Synthetic diesel oil, for example, will be able to perform its duties for more miles than conventional diesel oil. When diesel oil begins to break down, it won't be able to properly lubricate and cool the engine. Therefore, the oil will need to be flushed and replaced with a new batch. Burning oil smells, low oil levels, and dark-colored oil fluids are signs that it is time for you to replace the oil in your engine. You should refer to your vehicle's owner's manual when determining whether or not it is time to replace your diesel oil. Manufacturers understand their vehicles and know exactly what their engines need and are capable of.
