    • @michaelbenoit248
      @michaelbenoit248 Рік тому +8

      In a way it already exists… air cooling instead of using water. In an air cooled unit since the air isn’t displacing as much heat as water cooling can those systems are more of an oil cooled system. Some smaller 25hp engines have an oil cooler in the oil system.

    The Briggs and Stratton engine happens when someone adds something like rislone stop smoke to the oil thinking that they are going to help reduce oil burning and add the whole bottle. It happens fast too had a "buddy" sabotage my lawnmower that way took 2 uses of the mower and it started to make Alot of noise and I decided to drain the oil to see if it had metal in it .. took 29 gallons of diesel gas mixture and 3 weeks to get it flushed out of the engine it ran ok but burned Alot of oil afterwards though

      I bet it did lol. Diesel probably broke up all the residual stuff helping with the oil pressure, I had the same thing happen with an older cord I bought to fix up. Used diesel to break up all the crap in the oil pan, found quite a number of leaks around the seal following that.

    My Jeep is almost 20years old. I am the original owner and the ONLY ONE to do work on it. I will never put additives in the engine. No way. Also, I am in the middle of replacing the front end steering and suspension. I can not believe some of the things ppl have done tying theirs up with chains or straps. Yikes

      Depends on what state you're in. For example, I'm in TX, and an inspection is legally required every year. Other states don't require inspections at all.

      Depends on your local regulations, but you should refer to your owners and or service manual and follow their recommendations for inspection and service intervals.
      Imo it doesn't hurt to have it inspected during each oil change just to see how things are holding up with a simple visual inspection. Preventative maintenance and periodic inspections are cheaper than repairing a catastrophic failures. The more regularly its inspected the more likely it is to spot and fix a problem.
      At a minimum as an owner you should check your fluid levels and tire pressure every two weeks to a month, or whenever you top off the fuel as most manuals will state.
