Objectives Of Lubrication
4. To keep the engine parts clean, especially piston rings and ring grooves,
oilways and filters.
5. To absorb shocks between bearings and other engine parts thus reducing
engine noises and extending engine life.
Lubricating systems :
SAE NUMBER :
20, 30 and 40 SAE number lubricating oils are for summer use
and the viscosity tests are made at 2100 F.
Types Of Lubricants :
The lubricants are of three types :
2. Semi- solid-----grease.
Lubricating Parts :
4. Camshaft bearings
6. Timing gears
7. Valve mechanism
An oil pressure guage at the instrument panel indicates the oil pressure in
the system. Oil filters and strainers in the system clears offal from dust,
metal particles and other harmful particles.
3. Oil cooler
Crankcase Ventilation :
The engine lubricating system may fail due to any one of the following
reasons :
3. Contaminated oil
Low oil pressure :
The oil pressure may be low due to anyone of the following reasons :
4. Excessive clearance in the bearing causing rapid oil leakage from the
bearing ends.
1. Loose bearing
16. High speed and high temperature, which reduce oil viscosity.
More oil flows and more oil leaks and more oil burns.
Sources Of Loss :
1. Combustion :- The oil leaks past the piston rings into the
combustion chamber, where it is burnt up. This cannot be avoided
because some oil must have to reach the upper position of the
cylinder lubrication of the cylinder walls and piston rings.

ENGINE COOLING SYSTEM
Heat energy produced by a spark ignition engine constitutes less than 30 per cent of
the total energy required for useful work, while the rest has to be disposed of without
causing any harm to the engine parts. About 36 per cent passes out of the exhaust system,
some 7 per cent is lost to internal friction and heating the lubricating oil, while another 33
per cent is dissipated in the cooling system.
There are two types of cooling systems, direct and indirect. In the direct system, air is
blown over the cooling fins on the outside of the cylinder heads. In the indirect system a
coolant which is generally water, flows through passages in the engine.
The essential parts of a modern water cooled engine are:
A jacket that surrounds all hot regions such as the combustion chamber, cylinder bores,
inlet manifolds and exhaust ports.
A pump
to circulate water through the passages.
The ideal temperature for an engine to operate efficiently is that which heats the coolant
to a point near the thermostat housing to about 80-8500C.
