The cooler<br \/>\nthe operating temps, the better your engine can perform.<\/p>\n<h2>4 Prevent Contamination by Acting as a Seal<\/h2>\n<p>Acting as a seal, motor oils help minimize combustion by-products from<br \/>\ncontaminating the lubrication system. Lubricants act as a dynamic seal in<br \/>\nlocations such as the piston, piston ring and cylinder contact areas.<\/p>\n<h2>5 Dampen Shock<\/h2>\n<p>In the event of mechanical shock, lubricants help cushion the blow.<br \/>\nThe lubricant fi lm can absorb and disperse energy spikes over a broader<br \/>\ncontact area, reducing impact.<\/p>\n<h2>6 Prevent Corrosion<\/h2>\n<p>Corrosion of internal components can be reduced or prevented by<br \/>\nlubricants, by either chemically neutralizing corrosive products or setting<br \/>\nup a barrier between the components and the corrosive material.<\/p>\n<h2>7 Transfer Energy<\/h2>\n<p>At times a lubricant is required to act as an energy-transfer medium,<br \/>\nsuch as in the case of hydraulic equipment or valve lifters in an<br \/>\nautomotive engine.<\/p>\n<p>Buy the best <a href=\"http:\/\/www.syntheticoilhq.com\" target=\"_blank\">synthetic oil<\/a> at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.syntheticoilhq.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">SyntheticOilHQ<\/a>.com<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Minimize Friction and Wear<\/p>\n<p>The #1 function of a lubricant.
