• Oil is used to lubricate pistons, piston rings and cylinders. Thin
films of oil, left over when pistons move in cylinders, are sucked
into the combustion chamber due to high negative pressure
generated when the vehicle is decelerating. This oil gets burnt in
the combustion chamber
• Oil is also used to lubricate the stems of intake valves. Some of
this oil is sucked into the combustion chamber together with the
intake air and is burnt there
• Engine oil consumption depends upon the viscosity and quality of
the oil, and upon the conditions in which the vehicle is driven. Oil
consumption will be more due to high speed driving and frequent
acceleration and deceleration. A new engine may consume more
oil since its pistons, piston rings and cylinder walls are not
conditioned
