This video explores the importance of using the right oil for engine break-in. The hosts discuss the lack of a standardized definition for "break-in oil" and the importance of understanding the chemistry involved. They highlight the need for low detergent levels, high zinc dialkyldithiophosphate (ZDP) levels, and the absence of molybdenum.

They explain that the wrong oil can hinder the seating process and lead to problems like blow-by. The video will explore different oils and their properties, providing guidance on how to choose the right one for your engine.
100610 4 года назад 8:27The video discusses the engine break-in procedure for a new Mustang GT. The owner followed the manufacturer's recommendation to keep the RPMs low for the first 1,000 miles, despite some arguing that it's unnecessary. They also discuss the common practice of an early oil change, which they chose not to do.
6761 3 года назад 5:24The video discusses the importance of break-in oil for new engines, especially those with flat tappet cams. The EPA's new regulations have removed anti-wear components from standard oils, making break-in oil crucial for protecting engine parts. The video highlights Blueprint Engines' new break-in oil, specifically designed with anti-wear components like zinc to ensure a smooth and safe break-in period.
12532 8 лет назад 1:12This video explores the importance of low detergent levels in break-in oil. The presenter demonstrates how different oil formulations react with water and fuel, highlighting the need for separation to prevent emulsification. They explain that this separation is crucial for proper break-in, as it allows fuel to vaporize and prevents interference with the zinc in the oil.
