      Hi Raffe, I hope you’re doing well. If I start from May,2023,how long would it take/cost to get certified become a technical lubricant professional? I would be thankful to you for your quick response.

    thanks for sharing. Interesting to note that engine lube oils designed for 'gas' engines tend to be more tolerant of the gas contaminants that could lead to poor TBN or corrosion.

      Yeah, although some diesel engine oils do tend to have higher BN, particularly the marine engine oils.

    Lean burn is more efficient.
    Rich burn with 3 way catalyst can achieve lower overall emissions rates than a lean burn.
    Both types have their advantages.
    Please read EGSA power generation reference book chapter on large liquid cooled spark ignited engines.

    Thanks for this very informative video. I knew a lot. But with this, a question have come up in my mind that how engine lubricants work in gas engines specially CNG engines and what type of lubricants should be used in CNG car/bike engines.

    it would be interesting to make a video about the characteristics of motorcycle lubricants, especially what the presence of the wet clutch entails and the jaso MA MA2 specifications.

    You can apparently convert a diesel engine so that it can run on gas

    Great video, Mr. LE! I wonder how much soot a 15w40 semusyn Diesel engine Lube can handle vs. a common semisyn 15w40 Gasoline Lube ?

      Good question! Unfortunately I don't have a great answer at the moment. I ask around.

    • @em4703
      @em4703 Před rokem +1

      A lot more soot, since it has special additives due to diesel oils requiring them to dissolve and keep soot in suspension. That's not really an issue with gasoline oil.

    • @Errol.C-nz
      @Errol.C-nz Před rokem

      @@em4703 gasoline exhaust is far more acidic & exh water is more prevalent.. do a hot vs cold oil change & see the resultant water in the oil especially cars that do a lot of short runs

    Thanks Rafe, this is a very clear and understandable explanation. Really appreciated.

      however incorrect it fundamentally is.. the fuel ignition methods set significantly different design demands.. same applies to "2-stroke" comparisons.. as an example theres NO similarities between uniflow vs loop scavenged "2-strokes".. both 2-strokes!!.. nothing comparable.. homogenous charge compression ignition exemplifies the fundamental difference design demand.. applying diesel principles to "gas" fueled piston engines.. no mention of why diesel engine donut piston crown chambers.. thats a fundamental demand difference

    Hey, I made a synthetic lubricant but want to make it thicker, right now its probably close to 140W but I want it closer to 240W. What should I add?
    Also, this lubricant is used on pivots so temperature is not a concern. I am not very experienced with oil making, sorry about that.

    • @LubricationExplained
      @LubricationExplained  Před 2 lety

      Good question. That's a pretty big jump that you're looking for. What base oil did you use? You might need to start with a higher viscosity grade. You could use a bunch of PIBs to jack up the viscosity but I don't think that would be ideal...

    You need to modify the title of this video with lpg/cng in parentheses. It is not plainly obvious for the first quarter of your video that you do not mean gasoline to the majority of the native English speaking world.

    endless debate that lpg destroys engines...
    i find it funny, gas flame is colder than gasoline. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adiabatic_flame_temperature
    these guys measured exhaust temp, and lpg was colder by 20 deg c czcams.com/video/Kzej3WzcvAM/video.html

    • @qaisibrahim5674
      @qaisibrahim5674 Před 2 lety +1

      But I once read a study that shows it bruns hotter because It doesn't cool the valves like petrol does therefore LPG might (not destroy) cause valve recession

    • @LubricationExplained
      @LubricationExplained  Před 2 lety +1

      Yeah I don't think it's necessarily going to destroy an engine given there's plenty of perfectly functional has engines out there. But the combustion characteristics are definitely different. It's flame speed as well as temperature.
