You can expose the metal to hot water or oil.
Oil does expand when heated and contracts when cooled.
Yes, turpentine does expand. In fact, it expands more than oil, water and benzene!
hot oil.
Yes if it gets hot enough and it has enough air. Unattended cooking oils are a leading cause of house fires in the USA.
at what temperature does motorcycle oil suppose to get hot
The oil will be hot, which causes it to expand. This can give a false reading of your oil level.
I think "crawling oil" is oil in a pan that "crawls" away from the hot center of the pan when it gets really hot.
It burns
when you oil gets hot it tends to thin out. Say your using 5w-30 and when the engine gets warm it knocks it means either the oil is to thin or oil is not getting to that component. next oil chenge try using the lucas oil stablizer and see what it does. It should solve the problem but remember lucas oil oil stablizer takes the place of one quart of oil.
yes when gets to hot or is put to close to fire
the engine gets hot and while your engine is running your oil is going through your engine lubbing it. by the time the engine gets hot the oil is spread throughout the engine. if you have too much oil in the gauge will act weird because its hooked up to your oil to read its pressure. if it was youroil pump or switch it would do this when the engine was cold to. make sure the oil is at the correct level b4 spending money on a switch or pummp

The engine will seize and lock up way before it gets hot enough to turn oil to ash.
Oil may have dripped on exhaust manifold, which gets very hot when the engine is running and burns off the oil, causing smoke.
oil is used in an engine to lubricate and help keep engine components cool so if you run engine with no oil, the moving parts get hot. when the parts get hot, they expand. when they expand, they bind up on other parts when this happens the parts get more hotter and then basically the parts can weld together. this is caused siezing .then your engine is screwed
You need to have the oil pressure checked. It could be a worn engine or thin oil causing that.
