How
long has it has been since you have started the engine on your boat?
After a couple of days of just sitting, any protective oil that was left
on the bearings is almost gone, basically leaving a "dry start" metal to
metal condition the next time you start that engine.
Facts...
-
80% of all engine wear
occurs at startup. The longer it has been since an engine was last
started the greater potential for wear!
-
Pre-Lubricating any
engine before it is started will decrease or eliminate the overall
wear normally associated with the "dry starting" of an engine, thus
extending engine life.
After a week, even oil
that normally is in the small oil passages and oil galleys has run back
into the oil pan, making the initial starting of your engine even harder
on the bearings and valve train components. Why? Because now when
starting the engine the oil pump has to fill all of the oil passages
before any oil gets to your bearings or valve train...on some engines
this can take 5-10 seconds or MORE.
Extend the life of your
expensive boat engine, reduce maintenance, and make starting easier,
with the MasterLube Prelubrication system. Boats of all types, sizes and
uses can be protected. With models to fit almost any application, we
welcome the opportunity to build custom models for those "unique"
applications, usually for little if any extra from our kit pricing.
The MasterLube kit is very simple to install, is powder coated black, comes
with clamps, steel braided Teflon hose, Adapter fitting, a unique valve assembly
that is so reliable it is rated at over 10 million cycles, and has a lifetime guarantee.
It can hold pressure for years, and can pre-lubricate your engine whether it
has been a day, a week, or even months between engine start-ups.
