Motor oil plays a significant role in the internal combustion engine. It is the quality and properties of the thin oil film which it forms, depends on the duration and continuity of operation of the motor. So the choice and replacement of this fluid should be treated with special attention.
Before you go to the store and buy the first canister, it is worth remembering that for every vehicle manufacturer prescribes a specific type of this liquid. So, before you decide what oil to pour into the engine, note the user manual or service book, which detailed what, where and how often to pour.
No matter How many disputes have wound up on the theme “what kind of oil pouring into the engine”, still final answer to this question is no. Some believe that there is nothing better than “soda”, others speak in favor of synthetic fluids, and still others prefer to buy semi-synthetics. Each of these types of motor oils special in their own way, each has its arguments «for» and «against». Therefore, in order to understand all these nuances, let's look at each type of liquids separately.
The best oil for the engine with a mileage of more than 100 thousand kilometers is, of course, «mineral water». Thanks to its mild properties, it ensures a perfect lubrication of worn pistons and cylinders. However, we should not forget that the mineral oil because of its, so to say, “performance” form for a few thousand miles a lot of deposits that are not washed out from the engine just like that.

And here comes to help “synthetic”. This engine oil for diesel engine and gasoline compared with mineral very quickly and effectively cleans all accumulated deposits unit. That is why the owners recommend constantly to alternate between “synthetic” from “mineral water». Also, this type of oil is great for cars with mileage less than 100 thousand kilometers, that is, age is not more than 3 years. However, on worn engines the systematic application of “synthetic” can harm the engine, so the sequence should always be observed.
And what “polysynthetic”? This liquid is a kind of intermediate link between the mineral and synthetic oils. Generally, abroad the concept of “polysynthetic» does not exist. This can be heard only in the countries of the former USSR. In fact, “polysynthetic” is a special type of oil made from mineral method gidrokrekinga. Its main advantage is price. But in practice it is used in the transition from “synthetic” “soda”, and Vice versa. This is done to ensure that the engine is not so much loaded when changing from one fluid to another.
Thus, the question “what kind of oil pouring into the engine” there is no single answer, each type of fluid is suitable under certain conditions. Therefore, choose the oil should be in full compliance with the mileage and the type of fluid, which was poured into the motor earlier.
