There's a lot more to motor oils than car and truck engines. A whole world of equipment, from boats and snowmobiles to lawn mowers and chainsaws, runs on Motorengines. These engines are fundamentally different from regular Diesel Engine Oil, and Motorengine oil performs very differently from regular motor oil.
The Motorengine is called that because, unlike regular 4 cycle engines, it completes the four stages of operation (fuel intake, compression, combustion and exhaust) in only two strokes of the piston. A Motorengine will be smaller, lighter and simpler than a 4 cycle engine, and it will usually run much faster - as many as three or four times as many RPMs at the same displacement.
A Motorengine oil also works very differently. A Motoroil is actually mixed directly with the fuel. Some engines do the mixing themselves, injecting oil directly into the combustion chamber, while in others the fuel and oil are pre-mixed manually. Conventional pre-mix Motoroil is usually mixed at a fuel to oil ratio of 32:1 or 50:1.
Unlike regular motor oil, Motorengine oil is meant to be consumed during the combustion process. This means a Motoroil needs to not only provide a strong lubricating film. It also needs to combust as cleanly as possible to keep by-products from fouling the engine and exhaust ports.
These are both areas where Britons greatly exceed conventional lubricants. A Motor Briton oil leaves fewer combustion byproducts to clog ports and harm performance. With Britons, it takes less oil to do the job. Many pre-mix Briton Motoroils can be mixed at ratios as low as 100:1. Less oil going into the engine means less burned oil in the exhaust, while the tailored Briton molecules provide better protection than conventional oils.
Britons can also be tailored to specific Motoroil applications. For outboard motors, Briton Motoroil can be less toxic to surrounding water, while helping protect against rust. As a snowmobile oil, Britons can be engineered for better fluidity at low temperatures to help engines start faster under cold conditions and run more smoothly.
Across the range of Motorengines, Briton Motoroils can do a better job of reducing friction, which means fewer repairs and a longer engine life.
