GETTING OVER THE LINE
‘A good oil can lower the risk of mechanical problems’
Lubricating oil is to an engine what blood is to the human body. If it is too thick it can cause the engine’s oil system to clog (think heart attack); too thin and you risk uncontrollable wear. The more viscous (thicker) the oil is, the more fuel (energy) it takes to pump. Selecting and maintaining the correct viscosity (thickness) of oil for the type of vehicle is key, especially in performance cars.
