What does exhaust smoke tell me about my engine?
The color of engine exhaust smoke and when it occurs can tell you a lot about your engine’s condition. Basically, there are three types of exhaust smoke – black exhaust smoke, blue exhaust smoke, and white exhaust smoke. Though each type of exhaust smoke has a story to tell, visible exhaust smoke is an indication…
Read MoreWhat causes white smoke when I start my diesel engine?
Maxodyne Stop Smoke Gasoline Pack Maxodyne Stop Smoke Diesel Pack White smoke is caused by unburnt diesel fuel leaving the combustion chamber and entering the exhaust system. When white smoke occurs at cold start and then disappears as the engine warms up, the most common causes are fouling deposits around piston rings and/or cylinder glazing.…

Read MoreHow does oil help keep an engine cool?
Lubricating oil has 2 often-overlooked, yet very important functional requirements – It has to COOL and it has to CLEAN the engine components it is in contact with. Full, unrestricted flow of clean oil to all engine components is essential to provide proper cooling and lubricating benefits to the engine. A highly effective way to…
Read MoreWhat happens when sludge builds up inside an engine?
Engine oil cleanliness is vital to the life of an engine! When sludge builds up inside an engine, it restricts the flow of vital oil through the oil filter and oil galleries and subsequently to all lubricated engine components. Ultimately, this restricted and contaminated oil supply can lead to complete engine failure. Use remarkably effective…
Read MoreHow do I effectively remove engine sludge to prevent an expensive overhaul?
Engine oil cleanliness is vital to the life of an engine! Any sludge can restrict the flow of oil to critical engine components, causing component failure and ultimately, an expensive engine overhaul. By using remarkably effective Flushing Oil Concentrate as recommended, it will effectively remove the most persistent engine sludge and all hard baked on…
Read MoreWhy does my engine oil light sometimes come on?
The engine oil light comes on when your engine suffers a drop in pressure at the oil pressure sensor. Apart from a faulty oil pressure sensor, the problem can be caused by: insufficient oil pressure leaving the oil pump. Without enough oil pressure, the engine can’t lubricate itself sufficiently. If the engine continues to be…
Read MoreExtended oil drain intervals: good or bad?
Manufacturers of many modern passenger car and light truck engines recommend extended oil drain intervals; 12,000 to 15,000 miles is not uncommon. It’s almost impossible for these engines to operate for such extended intervals without forming engine-destroying sludge in the lubricating system. The solution to this problem is to use Flushing Oil Concentrate at every…
Read MoreWhat is a low cost way of removing engine-destroying sludge?
Engine-destroying sludge accumulates in the oil over time, often a result of carbon contaminants (combustion waste) entering the oil, as well as extended oil drain intervals coupled with poor maintenance schedules. A very safe, highly effective, low cost way of removing engine-destroying sludge is to use Flushing Oil Concentrate at every oil change. Flushing Oil…
