In the vast expanses of the north, problems for drivers grow exponentially. Temperatures that often drop below -30 degrees pose a serious threat to the smooth operation of vehicles. So what measures are drivers from these regions taking?
In an ideal world, a warm garage would be a panacea for all the troubles associated with winter car care. However, the reality is far from ideal: heated parking lots are a rare luxury. Very often Russians have to resort to various tricks. Unlike residents of large cities, where preheaters and continuous engine operation are possible, most northern motorists rely on a simple and effective solution for starting engines in low temperatures.
The essence of the problem is the thickening of motor oil to an uncontrollable consistency in severe frost. A hair dryer, an ordinary saucepan and a little ingenuity will help you cope with this situation. For those who do not have access to sophisticated heaters, a hair dryer, which can be bought on trading platforms for just a thousand rubles, will be an excellent option. In combination with a regular saucepan that has a hole for placing a hair dryer at an angle of 45 degrees, a kind of heater is created.
The makeshift heater is strategically located under the crankcase, where the oil drained overnight is located. A hair dryer reinforced with a metal circuit connected to an outlet quickly heats up the lubricant. The result is not only smoother engine starting, but also improved idle performance, which reduces wear on critical engine components. The beauty of this solution lies in its simplicity, accessibility and effectiveness (photo: ru.freepik.com).
