Start the engine at low temperatures

Operation of machines at low temperatures, the presence of strong winds, snow and drifting snow is pretty difficult. Temperatures below zero Celsius makes it difficult starting the engine and its various systems. Subsequently, the low-temperature environment petrol bad evaporates and the air density is significantly increased. At low temperatures the fuel is depleted, and according to this and its a bad inflammation. How does your car make sure to provide start-up in the winter? 1. You must use special oils with reduced viscosity. For example M-5/10. The benefit of today such oils on sale a lot. These types of oils will give the starter to work at temperature - 20-25 degrees. If you need engine work at temperatures of less than -20-25 degrees, should be applied more oil to lower viscosity. These oils are labeled SAE. For example oil 5W-30 is just classified as SAE. But even the use of oils with low viscosity at high frost (30 degrees) may not be enough. Often the motor, having worked a few minutes jammed. This is because oil is splashed in the motor line is not replaced. In this case, under the pump builds up air pocket and light "no pressure" will show you that. In this case, the engine should immediately shut down, otherwise there will be damage. But what if the street -30, and the need to go? To heat 1-1,5 liters of oil to about 100-110 degrees and pour it directly into the engine, there is add gasoline. Then this whole mixture to mix the starter. After this the engine starts and runs without any problems. 2. It should warm up the engine, using the cooling system. For this we need plain water. If the outdoor temperature is -35 degrees, the water must be heated to 80 degrees. Need to close blinds radiator, open and clean the drain cock in the cooling system. Then you need to slowly fill with water through a funnel into the neck of the radiator. Once the water starts to flow from public taps, they should be half closed and continue to pour water. As soon as the cock will leave 6-8 liters of water, tap to close and fill with hot water the whole system. Then recommended that you close the hood and for heating the walls to hold the hot water in the system. After you open the tap, pour 1 / 3 or 1 / 2 part water and re-pour the entire capacity of the hot water. After completing this procedure, the engine is started with starting fluid and a small amplitude of idle speed warm up it for 3-4 minutes. 3. Heat the butter, warming up the engine crankcase gas burner, blowtorch or somehow accessible way, for example, using a kerosene stove. A 35-degree cold, 15 minutes, this procedure should be sufficient for adequate heating oil. All this should be done by taking security measures. When heated to remember that oil is not a frying pan, and do not need to cook it over an open fire. The flame should be given to the side: the time needed to warm up will increase, but it will be better and safer. Also keep in mind that the heating tray initiates excessive heating of the lower layer of oil, causing the destruction of the additives. 4. The use of chemical additives that help to run the engine at temperatures below zero. The use of such supplements recommended by experts. Such funds should be applied to-20 degrees, since these additives - it is volatile liquid, and as it turns out, the ignition occurs even when the ignition is turned off. Such additives - it is most often aerosols to be sprayed into the air filter tube. These sprays provide instant engine starting. 5. This method can be used as a last resort to start the engine. Starting the engine is towing. In this case, the driving wheels drive the crankshaft car. This method is a guarantee of the engine, but its use is permitted only in necessary cases, since at this powertrain, chassis and engine receive shock loads, which often leads to breakdowns.
