The engine component that stores oil for lubrication is the oil pan, also known as the sump. It is located at the bottom of the engine and collects oil that drains from various engine parts. The oil pump circulates this stored oil to critical engine components to ensure proper lubrication and cooling during operation.
engine oil
Oil is mixed with Petrol in what is known as a 2 cycle engine. This type of engine has no lubrication built in (as say an oil tank on a 4 cycle engine) so as the fuel/oil mixture burns lubrication is provided to the cylinder.
Inside the engine lubrication system.
Simple answer: Lubrication. Without oil the engine will self destruct very quickly.
It gets its lubrication from the oil mixed with the gasoline.
it shares lubrication with the engine oil... you dont have to oil it just keep the engine full of oil
answer simple. for lubrication
If you have too much oil in your pan there is a possibility that the crank will whip it up into a foam. Your oil pump will no pump the foam so your engine will not get the lubrication it needs. No lubrication = seized engine.
If you ran it out of oil, you may have locked up the engine. It needs oil for lubrication. No oil...no engine.
Yes, the engine oil is shared with the turbocharger for both lubrication and cooling.
If it uses engine oil for lubrication then there is no maintenance other than changing your engine oil and filter at a regular interval. I recommend 3,000 miles on a Supercharged car which uses engine oil for lubrication. If on the other hand it has a self contained lubrication system, then you need to read the owners manual or go to the manufacturer's web site.
Lack of proper lubrication, i.e. oil.
