can i check engine oil when hot
I'm a seasoned industrial engineer with a keen interest in machine learning. Here to share insights on latest industry trends.
Yes, you can check engine oil when the engine is hot, but it's generally recommended to do so when the engine is warm or has cooled down a bit after running. This is because hot oil expands, giving a less accurate reading, and there's also a risk of burning yourself on engine components. Ideally, wait a few minutes after turning off the engine to let it cool. Ensure the vehicle is on level ground for an accurate reading. Pull out the dipstick, wipe it clean, then reinsert it fully before pulling it out again to check the oil level against the marked indicators. This practice ensures your engine maintains the correct oil level, crucial for its performance and longevity.
