Premature Degradation of Lubricating Oil during the Service Life of the Positive-Ignition Engine
The main purpose of this article is to draw attention to the possibility of uncontrolled degradation of lubricating oil during its routine operation. Such degradation can pose a serious threat to engine operation and can even cause its permanent damage. The research of the work was aimed at determin...
