| Symptoms of
Degraded Oil |
- Oil Hard to adjust valves
- Tight packing
Oil degrades over a period of time.
Sludge and acids are by-products of degraded oil. Dark color and foul
odors are also indicators. A small one-time-use kit called a total acid
number test will determine if the oil has degraded beyond use. TAN
numbers greater than 0.7, indicate the oil should be replaced. (Tank
replacement) |
