How important is the oil filter to the life of the engine?

Cars pay attention to "three-point repair and seven-point maintenance" in daily use. In daily maintenance items, replacing the oil filter is an essential maintenance item. Do not underestimate the humble component of the oil filter, which plays a vital role in the life of the car engine. So what is the difference between the pros and cons of the oil filter?

In the daily work of the engine, there will be a lot of metal debris, dust and other magazines mixed into the oil. The function of the oil filter is to filter out these magazines, keep the engine oil clean, protect the lubricating parts of the engine, and prolong the service life of the engine.

So what is the internal structure of the machine filter? The overall structure of the machine filter includes a housing, a filter element fixing spring, a filter element, a check valve and a bypass valve. The function of the fixed spring of the filter element is to keep the filter element in a vertical and stable working "posture"; the check valve determines the oil pressure when the engine is cold started; the bypass valve improves the effect of oil filtering. Although the machine filter is small, it has all five internal organs.

Although the machine filter is only a small part, it is very important to the engine. Therefore, in the process of daily maintenance and maintenance of the vehicle, the machine filter should be taken extra care of, otherwise it is likely to lose too much.
