These three engine maintenance misunderstandings are a must-read to avoid them!
Many special vehicle drivers
have fallen into such engine misunderstandings
If the engine uses good oil, there is no need to change the oil filter. If the oil has few impurities or the air filter is not broken, there is no need to change the dust in the intake pipe will be blown out automatically

If you have this idea, then read this article quickly
Myth 1: If the engine uses good oil, there is no need to change the oil filter
Many people think that good oil is relatively clean and free of impurities, so there is no need to change the oil filter regularly after use. But in fact, this idea is wrong. No matter what grade of lubricant, its oil quality will change during use.
When the vehicle travels a certain mileage, the performance will deteriorate and cause various problems to the engine. For example, the filter is blocked, the filter element is blocked, and it may even burst the filter element or squeeze the safety valve, bringing the stolen goods back to the engine, causing the engine to wear faster and the internal pollution to increase.
Therefore, regular replacement of the oil filter is a very important maintenance measure.
Correct approach:
Regular replacement of the oil filter helps to extend the service life of the engine.
Myth 2: The air filter element does not need to be replaced
For many special vehicle drivers who do not work in dusty places, the dust in the driving environment is not large, so there is no need to replace the air filter element.
In fact, the engine's air intake system mainly consists of two parts: the air filter element and the air intake pipe. Therefore, the air filter element should be cleaned or replaced regularly according to different usage conditions.
For example, generally speaking, the air filter element should be replaced with a new one if it is cleaned more than three times, and the cleaning cycle depends on the air quality of the daily driving area.
Note that if the air filter element is not effective, it will affect the engine's intake combustion.
Correct approach:
Replacing the air filter element frequently according to the actual situation is conducive to the full combustion of the engine and the driver's breathing health.
Myth 3: Dust in the intake pipe will be blown out automatically
If the vehicle often drives in dusty and poor air quality road conditions, it should pay attention to regularly cleaning the intake pipe to ensure smooth intake.
The intake duct is very important for the normal operation of the engine. If the intake duct is too dirty, the efficiency of intake and engine combustion will decrease, so that the engine cannot operate within the normal output power range, and the wear and aging of the engine will be aggravated.
If you cannot avoid dusty areas on a daily basis, you can clean the intake duct frequently, and the air conditioner should also be cleaned.
Correct approach:
The dust in the intake duct will not be blown out automatically. Frequent cleaning of the intake duct will help maintain the engine and extend its service life.
The above are the three major misunderstandings of engine maintenance that many special vehicle drivers are prone to. Everyone must get rid of the misunderstanding, otherwise it will affect the service life and efficiency of the special vehicle, and will also affect driving safety.
