In a diesel engine, soot was produced due to incomplete fuel combustion in a combustion chamber. Some of this soot sticks to the cylinder wall and interferes with lubricant oil. This soot causes the lubricant oil to contaminate and this increases its viscosity. Contamination of lubricant oil is one...
