Many gas stations today offer a very interesting and even attractive service: changing engine oil without unscrewing the drain plug. A hose is inserted into the neck of
Many motorists who regularly change the engine oil have realized that every time they drive the car into a pit or rent a lift, they remove the crankcase protection, loosen the drain plug, which can be licked, and when turning it even the fragile pan break. , it’s not necessary at all.
At everyone’s favorite Chinese flea market, markets and shops there is a special pump with a thin tube that allows you to pump waste directly from storage through the oil dipstick. Moreover, you can make the pump yourself by rebuilding the old fuel pump. To do – half an hour. And at gas stations in large cities, such a service is offered completely free of charge if you purchase the lubricant from the contractor.
This method has many very tangible advantages: it is simpler, cleaner, lighter and cheaper than the traditional one. There are also many comments on the Internet: people actively use it – the majority of people are happy. However, there is one very important negative aspect that usually remains in the shadows. And before changing the oil according to a simplified procedure, it is worth learning more about it.
Motor oil has a very broad functionality. It not only lubricates moving parts, but is also responsible for cooling, protection against corrosion (as with any “closed circuit”, the engine has condensation), and also for cleaning the engine from carbon deposits. And there it certainly appears, especially if it is not gas that enters the cylinders, but the usual fuel. Some of the dirt settles in the oil filter, but a large part remains in the crankcase, where it can only be removed by the classic replacement method.
A pump with a hose running into the neck of the dipstick picks up the “tops”, but does not touch the roots, the dirt itself, for which, in fact, it is necessary to change the oil. In this way, the driver does his car a disservice: de jure the maintenance has been carried out, but de facto a whole swamp of waste accumulates in the crankcase, comparable in sediment density to solid oil.
The reason for the misunderstanding and, as a result, the incorrect use of the oil change method with a pump lies in a superficial attitude. If you regularly “renew” the lubricant, which is very useful and good for the engine, then you can use a pump. If it happens less often – once every 10-15 thousand km – then you need to drain it through the plug. And sometimes the crankcase needs to be removed for cleaning. So it is not the method itself that is bad, but its incorrect interpretation.
