Warming up to drive your car for a long time 2 〜Driving break-in second hands car〜

In the previous bog, I introduced "How to drive break-in a new car".

Following the new car, it is "Engine break-in second hands car edition"!

1. Review about "break-in"

Before introducing the break-in of second hands cars, I would like to review the "break-in".

Break-in is "one of the warm-ups for driving your car for a long time".

Just as we do preparatory exercises to avoid injury and to do our best before we exercise, cars need preparatory exercises.

Check the following blog for "break-in of new car".

 

2. Break-in driving method course [second hands car]

There is almost no problem with automobiles regardless of whether they are automatic or manual engine, and all oil changes and air cleaner changes are OK.

If you have done the above exchange at the time of delivery, you do not have to do anything

Check the following note for "oil change".

The problem is the motorcycle.

Unlike cars, motorcycles are quite delicate.

"Carbon" and "sludge (dust)" may have accumulated inside the engine, causing it to malfunction.

At this time, change the oil, air cleaner, and spark plug to keep the engine hot at high rpm. Then, it is emptied to blow off the carbon in the combustion chamber.

The inside of the engine will be cleaned by the cleaning effect of the oil.

After that, if you change the oil early, you will feel better.

If that doesn't work, use an "injection cleaner" or "cab cleaner".

 

>>Word explanation

・ Oil change

"Engine oil" has a role of lubrication and cooling in the engine. Oil change is one of the essential maintenances to make the engine longer life.

・ Air cleaner replacement

An "air cleaner (air filter)" that filters the air taken into the engine. If the air is dirty, it will not burn well or soot will come out.

・ Spark plug replacement

A "spark plug" that plays the role of ignition necessary for the engine to run. Deterioration of spark plugs affects combustion, acceleration, engine start, etc.

・ Injection cleaner

A cleaner exclusively for "injectors" that supplies fuel such as gasoline into the engine.

・ Carburetor cleaner

A cleaner exclusively for "carburetors" that appropriately provides a mixture of fuel and air according to different driving conditions while controlling it.

 

3. Summary

We introduced "engine break-in" twice, last time and this time.

It's been a long time, but this completes the warm-up for the engine!
