How does Motor Analyzer Work?
MotorAnalyzer works with a single drop of oil. Simply place a drop of warm oil on the test sheet and watch it work! As the MotorAnalyzer test sheet absorbs the oil a series of circles form a clear visual pattern. Compare this graphic display with the Test Results Guide to determine the amount of soot in the oil; the status of the oil (whether of not an oil change is required); water in the oil and fuel in the oil.
MotorAnalyzer provides a safe and reliable reading on the status of your motor oil, indicating potential problems with your engine. This easy to use test is ideal for consumers shopping for used vehicles, auction buyers seeking on-the-spot information, and those simply wanting to maintain their vehicles in sound running condition.
Why does this matter?
Lots of reasons!
Too much soot in the oil can mean faulty injection, clogged filters, poor carburetor adjustment and ineffective burning. This can lead to the formation of soot on valves and pistons, poor heat exchange and increased abrasion (leading to decreased mileage and greater emissions).
State of the motor oil can show you whether an oil change is needed or whether your oil is suitable for continued use. Either reading can save you money by changing exhausted oil before damage occurs or not changing oil with a reasonable service life.
Water in your oil can be a sign of defective seals or defective cylinder head gaskets or even cracks in the water cooling system. Too much water in your motor oil can be a sign of major damage.
Fuel in your oil might indicate defective injectors or faulty adjustments of the carburetor valve control. Fuel can also indicate defective piston rings or poor ignition timing. Consequences can include overheating, increased to complete component wear, high fuel consumption and increased emissions.
