What engine oil should be used since zinc compound is on longer in the present oil?
From MobilOil.com: All engine oils have an additive called ZDDP (Zinc DialkylDithioPhosphate) for wear protection. In general, heavy duty engine oils (truck oils like Mobil Delvac) have a higher level of ZDDP. Automotive engine oils generally have a lower level of ZDDP to protect catalytic systems.I trust Shell Rotella diesel oil in my solid lifter motors: a 1967 Plymouth GTX and 2004 Harley Sportster.
What is the purpose of the inlet valve in a petrol engine?

Why oil used in 2 stroke engine?
Small 2-stroke engines don't have any separate lubrication system, so they rely on oil mixed with the fuel to be carried to all the parts of the engine that needs lubrication.
What kinds of oils are synthetic?
Mobil 1 is an excellent synthetic oil that provides excellent lubrication for all parts of the motor and stands up well to heat.
Can all engines run on pure ethanol?
no because there i no lubrication in it and the engine would seize after a little while
Who modified the steam engine with the lubrication system to keep it working?
I'm not sure that question really makes much sense. All machinery requires lubrication, and therefore all steam-engine manufacturers designed and included some means to this end in their products.
What happens if you use regular gas instead of an oil mix gas in a weed eater or blower?
You will lose all lubrication to the engine, and if you run the engine long enough you will have catostrophic engine failure.
How do the Viscous properties of engine oils protect the engine during all stages of operation?
Simply by reducing friction and dispersing heat.
Can you use synthetic 10-30 in a 1968 vw beetle?
Sure you can. However.... if you're not running a bypass filter setup then the benefit of longer change intervals is not there. Whether synthetic or regular it's going to get dirty enough to change in the same time.For all around protection the very best oils would be ones with the high zinc levels, whether dino or synthetic. Typically called "racing oils" because of the zinc additive (zinc protects flat tappet engines like the classic vw) damage catalytic converters. Some of the better known, high zinc oils are Amsoil, Brad Penn and Valvoline VR-1.To sum it up: Run a good, high zinc oil, either dino or synthetic, to protect your classic engine. With a bypass filter you'll get a longer time between changes besides the other benefits of a filter. Hope the helps....
What is the best oil for engines?
vague question, what typr of engine, all engines take different oils
What damage can petrol do to a diesel engine?
It can make the engine seize up, the mechanic parts and components are made to work with the right type of fuel for the engine. Basically, if you put petrol into a diesel engine, it would run for about 10 minutes then die. Then you would need a new engine. Diesel fuel is oily and provides lubrication for the pumps and injectors. Petrol does not provide the lubrication, so the pumps and injectors will be damaged. It is unlikely that the engine will run at all if all petrol is used. Diesels are compression ignition engines. The fuel ignites as soon as it is injected into hot air. petrol needs a spark.
