How low before you start losing oil pressure?

And we try this with varying oil level.

I Love how they put so much Energy, Love and science in their Videos. I watched all Videos as i was Sick and this subscription is my best here on Yt. Thank you Garage54 Team 🎉 greets from Germany ❤

I had an International Scout II way back we used for off-roading. It had an oil pick up in the front and the rear of the oil pan. Never a problem with oil starvation.

It's a relief to know I'm still good even when nothing is on my dipstick!

That is one sketchy looking rig holding that running engine. I love this channel.

G'day Garage54 & BMI,
Thank you for taking us through the Ups & Downs of Engine Stress testing 😁

The thing is when turning, the high g forces would swing the oil to the other end way more than just slowly tilting the engine does

Only channel from the many thousands I subscribed to that I know I can like even before the video loaded on my screen

Finally garage 54 has bought new camera equipment. Been watching from the start of this channel

These guys are the kings of see through engine parts 😅

[giggiddy]

Love these Russians. Ive spent many hours being entertained by these guys. Cheers fellas

Handy info for people doing offroad type stuff for when they go up steep climbs or descend sharp drops... :P

This YouTube channel teaches me about the parts and how a car engine works I will subscribe to this channel from now on 👍

I guess I don't have to tell you guys, but many cars are designed to have the oil level filled and checked while the engine is running. Specifically because running the engine drains quite a bit of oil out of the pan. Also, although engine oil is probably the most important thing to maintain longevity of the engine, some car engines can run fine with *very* little oil in them, or run a short time with no oil at all. I had an old 1998 Toyota Camry and the thing used to leak and burn oil. I used to run the dipstick dry quite often. I know this is very bad, but the car kept running! I also used to put whatever oil I could get my hands on in the engine. I believe the car called for 5W-20, but I used to put 5W-30 or 10W-30 in the thing all the time. I think Toyota cars are just made to last! And the whole time, I never had the oil light come on. I'm pretty sure the sensor was bad. But I never had any problems with the engine. The car was finally junked at 190, 000 miles when I moved out of state. But was still running mostly fine. It had a bunch of problems. It was pissing out coolant and I was putting water in the radiator. Also, 3rd gear was going. It would grind at just the right speed. I figure I had around 10, 000 miles left.
I had another experience with a 2011 Toyota Camry 2.5L I4. The idiots who did an oil change on it used a power tool to screw on the oil filter. This stripped the treads out on the engine case and caused all the oil to leak out. My dad was driving the car at the time and was just a few miles from home grocery shopping. The oil light came on and he drove home and checked the oil. The dipstick was dry. He refilled the oil and drove back to the shop quite angry. They fixed the damaged engine case (for free of course which would have been quite expensive on their part) but the damage was done. It took another 8 years and 35, 000 miles before the engine damage became apparent. The car started making lifter ticking noise. Then the check engine light came on and the car didn't want to move. It had a lack of power and refused to drive faster than 70MPH. The mechanic I took it to said cylinder 3 was completely out. No compression. And cylinders 1 and 4 were misfiring/not sealing. The camshaft bearings were seized and some of the valves were stuck. Cost $8700 for an engine swap for a used engine with only 26, 000 miles on it. I decided to do it because the car was in great shape otherwise. No rust or damage to the suspension or frame. Now the car runs fine. My point is, don't mess around with engine oil! Keep it filled and change your oil people!

Love this stuff.. these gentlemen need to tube the exhaust and send it out a door tho. They were sucking down that crap for awhile. This is called the headache maker

[BackWithTheBoom]

i followed without subscribing actually these guys from day one, since then i never opened me tv to watch discovery channel. these guys are pure educational and sensational. these vids should be a good additive to some mechanical schooling. keep on going guys ! great job once again hero BMI russian. EDIT by the way, if these guys CANT fix your car, then no any other company could.

[plupyduplupydu]

Way awesome as always, and thanks again to mr translator, oil cools first, second it keeps off rust then it might lubricate

[SunnnyDay]

I wonder how the pressure is kept for an aircraft engine ? Those stunt planes go at all crazy angles !

[defcon]

I am both mortified and anxious about what they are doing this to this engine, but intrigued about the information they are collecting. Very cool video.

[kamudankemter]

One of the best videos. Love it, thanks!

[LostFozz_OverLand]

Super excited for this video haha I made a comment on the oil level post about this exact test as I off road a lot so thanks so so much for this it’s exactly helpful
