Hi guys,
Can temporary fuel dilution induce permanent oil shearing?
Had an injector problem on my diesel, resulted in engine "making" oil (like 0,5cm above the max level on the oil gauge).
Had the injector fixed, and put like Highway 200Km on the engine since. Oil level lowered (now around the full mark) but engine still feels and sound weird when warmed up (really noisy and vibrating, like when oil is due for a change. Engine is "normal" until fully warmed up.
So I wonder, could the oil been "damaged" by fuel, even if it has mostly evaporate since?
The oil has around 1300Km on it (normal OCI 7500Km).
It is also possible that the engine has been damaged by the injector issue, but my money is on the oil since all is ok when cold.
Thanks in advance for any input
