Sometimes it was only running on a couple of cylinders, and it might take a while for all of the cylinders to fire. I was working on a new lubrication system at one point, and the oil pressure spiked to 400psi and put the oil filter cannister onto the floor. Strings of oil were dangling from the filter head, and there was a PILE of oil on the floor.

Some fuel will evaporate, but what will most definitely evaporate are the engine bearings if you run it with diluted oil for too long.

These guys have done a great public service in demonstrating why you should always use the exact lubricating oils specified my the manufacture of your engine.

I've used an electric heat tape and an old Army blanket to warm up the engine on my wood splitter in the winter. When it's 25 degrees (F) below zero outside, it would have to be an emergency if I had to start up my truck to go anywhere. I'm retired. Better to wait for the temperature to rise a bit. Same with a blizzard, better to hunker down and wait until it's over to venture anywhere. Good job showing what happens inside an engine during cold weather.

My dad remembers going out in the bush with him to get a truck started. He used a fire to warm the engine as well, but he built it next to the truck and then shoveled the hot coals under the engine. I think he was worried about catching the truck on fire as the lower end was probably covered in oil from leaks.

@@hmw-ms3tx I used to live in Manitoba and we would sometimes go to my friends cabin during the winter in Lake of the Woods (Ontario). Usually around -38C and the cabin was on an Island so we would drive there on the ice roads so being stranded was really being stranded in -38 C weather as cell phones weren't a thing back then. We would take our batteries out of our SUV's and take them inside the cabin (fireplace for heat) for the night to keep them fresh. In the morning I would light a bag of match light charcoal (used for grilling) and place it on a cookie sheet. I would wait a bit for any flames to die down and the heat to subside a bit as to not melt anything under the SUV and then slide the pan under the SUV's oil pan. 20 minutes or so was usually good, bring the battery out and reconnect it while we waited (easier said then done in -38C) and the SUV's started up like summer time (like you said). It was a good system but the inside of the SUV would smell like smoke from the charcoal for a few months. If I ever had to do it again I would park the night before with the wind direction in mind.

I used to drive a Volvo 145 wagon (a 1969) with dual carbs. It didnt have a choke, but the knob on the dash opened a valve in one carb to trickle raw gas into the intake manifold. Yes it worked, even at -45F. When the engine started, it made terrifying noises for the first two minutes, but ran. This was in Northern Minnesota. You only get about two seconds of cranking, even with a new battery (when its -45F). Its a good idea to cover half the radiator when its that cold. Most Antifreeze is only rated good to about -50F so we did worry about that too. At those temps, tubeless tires will sometimes just go flat, gasoline is like oil, oil is solid, and differential grease is like concrete.

They drained the oil then changed the pan and filled fresh oil in. After they chilled the car but the oil pump was still empty and could not get the air out with the cold, thick oil. They should have fired up the engine for a minute to get the air out of the system after the oil change before they chilled it over night.

@@ducewags well, any decent multi-grade oil should be nice and thin when cold, and offer good film strength under operating temperatures. That's the whole meaning of the numbers. I use 5w40 oil in my car as recommended by the manufacturer, the 5w means it's going to have enough fluidity when cold to offer immediate flow to crucial parts within the engine, and the 40 represents the viscosity at operating (hot) temperatures. Oh but the oil is thick when cold and thin when hot you say? That's a monograde oil and shouldn't be used on anything other than vintage cars that call for it and stationary machinery. Those have a single number. That's exactly what a multi-grade oil solves by behaving in an opposite way. Say, a monograde 40 oil is going to be thick from the get go, especially when cold. Now, a 5w40, is going to be thinner the colder it gets (until a certain point, that is), but at operating temperatures is going to behave like the 40 weight when hot. That's all there is to it. It's not rocket science. Even if I'm qualified to tell you about these things (I'm a certified automotive technician) that shouldn't be the case, any person of average knowledge and especially a car owner should know. It's even on almost every car's owners manual, with graphics and everything.

What an exciting display of ingenuity. In winter your oil becomes too thick to be picked up and distributed throughout the engine. The amount of force to pickup the oil required increases, resulting in an increase in the torque on the distributor shaft gear. This torque was strong enough to break it's teeth. You totally illustrated this in a meaningful and easy to understand concept. Thank You.
@MadScientist267 Жыл бұрын
No, not to pick it up. That would only be ~14psi worth of work. Pressure. It can't leave thru the frozen channels it normally passes thru, and can't bleed off thru the relief for the same reason. The pressure builds up and since liquids are incompressible, something has to give. If the oil can't escape anywhere, the torque coming into the pump has to.

My dad and I ran his Mack truck all night outside at minus 35C one night as we changed engines in another vehical. He didn't want to shut it off as he was afraid it would not start again outside the shop at minus 35 and we were in the start of a 3 week cold snap. The 1957 Mack B-61 with the 170, cracked a piston that night. We ran that old grain truck for 5 years with a cracked piston. At the end of its life he would drain 3 gallons of water from the oil pan in the morning. We were running 80-90 gear oil for engine oil. It would steam out 5 gallons of water in a 6 mile run to the field, and for the first start in the morning it would take a can and a half of ether to start it. My dad said, "I buy Mack trucks, because if you can start it, it will get you home."
