An oil change is a service that helps keep one of the main fluids that an engine relies on fresh. Oil is responsible for lubricating numerous parts in an engine, cooling the engine, and cleaning the engine. When an engine is running low on oil or is running on oil that has broken down, it becomes prone to warping in addition to a variety of other issues. Warping damage happens to the metal parts in an engine when the engine has become too hot. By serving as a protective layer, clean oil not only prevents warping but prevents the metal parts in an engine from damaging one another.
There are three main types of oils available to gasoline-fueled engines: conventional oil, semi-synthetic oil, and full synthetic oil. Conventional oil, also commonly known as regular oil, offers basic lubrication to engines while being very affordable. Full synthetic oil offers premium lubrication properties and can last for many more miles than conventional oil. However, full synthetic oil is the most expensive of the three options and is unnecessary in every vehicle. Semi-synthetic oil is a nice mix between conventional oil and full synthetic oil.
To learn more about the different types of motor oils and their benefits, head over to our post overviewing synthetic, semi-synthetic, and conventional oils!
A special blend of synthetic oil and conventional oil, semi-synthetic oil offers a combination of the many benefits that both conventional and synthetic oil have to offer. In many cases, semi-synthetic oil is more affordable for drivers than fully synthetic oil, which is typically used in high-performance engines.
However, semi-synthetic oil offers many of the same properties as synthetic oil. Like synthetic oil, semi-synthetic oil is durable and less capable of breaking down under high temperatures. Compared to conventional oil, it is less likely for semi-synthetic oil blends to begin evaporating in an engine that has become too hot.
