...Honda Pilot Oil WRTG 393 Christopher Bloss June 10th, 2015 INTRODUCTION Changing your oil is just like changing the cat litter box – dump out the old crap, inspect for any issues, and fill up with new, fresh goods. The only difference is – if you make a mistake during the change process, you can cause permanent damage to your motor. This manual details the process of changing the oil in a 2005 Honda Pilot. This manual was written for the average DIY-er who has a basic understanding of engine maintenance. This manual is broken down into several thorough steps to help explain the process from understanding the purpose of an oil change, the need for changing the oil, and steps for at home oil changes. Motor Oil Purpose: There are 5 main purposes of motor oil: protection, lubrication, cooling, cleaning, and restoration of performance (Arnold, n.d., para 1). According to Arnold (n.d.), “Motor oil creates a slippery coating of lubrication so that the moving parts can move more fluidly. Without the oil's lubrication, the friction in the moving parts of the motor is greatly compromised and the compression is decreased, resulting in the inability to reach optimal levels of speed and performance.” Oil lubrication creates protection for the moving engine parts without this lubrication; the metal engine parts begin to degrade. As oil travels through the engine, the debris is collected and cleans the metal parts within the motor (Arnold, n.d., para.4). Motor oil provides cooling...

...The Agony of Diesel Engine Oil Particle Counts * Print Jim Fitch, Noria Corporation Tags: particle counting, oil analysis If cleaner motor oil extends engine service life, why aren’t labs reporting particle counts? Anyone who has worked in an oil analysis lab knows the challenges of counting and sizing particles in soot-laden diesel engine oil. Historically, most labs have chosen not to attempt particle counts with black oils. However, there is increasing user interest to have such numbers included in oil analysis reports, and some labs have already begun to comply using various instruments and methodologies. The increasing interest in contaminant monitoring of crankcase oils is driven in part by the many studies that have reported the positive effects gained from improved filtration on engine service life. One such study by General Motors documented that upgraded filter performance reduced engine wear by 50 percent. Statistics like this are hard to trivialize. In condition monitoring, any property that is important to machine reliability and life extension should be a property that is measured, assuming it is technically and economically feasible. Of course, this is the point of considerable consternation by the oil labs when it comes to crankcase oils. How does one perform practical particle counts on opaque fluids, achieving precision and cost efficiency at the same time? Before we examine the specific challenges of particle count methodologies, let’s review...

...How to Change Engine Oil In A Car What is oil change? Engine oil is the lifeblood of your engine. It picks up dirt, particles and other impurities and deposits them in the oil filter to keep your engine clean. Routine oil changes keep all the moving parts moving, and cut down on friction to cool the engine so your vehicle keeps running longer. The oil filter also gets replaced at the same time. Why need to change oil? If you want to keep your vehicle in great condition, it is recommended to change the engine oil between 3,000 to 5,000 miles. Most important thing to change oil is that you can keep your car running well and keep engine longer life. Over time, your oil will break down and your filter will become clogged with contaminants. One of the cornerstones of do-it-yourself car maintenance jobs is the home oil change. It's a simple process that requires few tools, and it's away to save some money to get best quality items while you avoid the hassle of sitting in a dull waiting room somewhere reading outdated magazines. How to change oil in a car? Part A : Gather your tools and materials. Go to the auto store to get everything you need. Before heading to the auto parts store to buy supplies, consult the owner's manual to confirm the type and amount of oil that's required. Make sure to match the oil's viscosity to your engine. In addition to oil, you'll need an oil filter, an oil-filter removal wrench...

...such as dusty areas and very short trip driving. Inspection and service should also be done anytime a malfunction is suspected. The oil change indicator system will remind you that it is time to take your vehicle in for scheduled maintenance. On Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) equipped vehicles “Oil Change Required” will be displayed in the EVIC and a single chime will sound, indicating that an oil change is necessary. Based on engine operation conditions the oil change indicator message will illuminate, this means that service is required for your vehicle. Have your vehicle serviced as soon as possible, within the next 500 miles (805 km). NOTE: The oil change indicator message will not monitor the time since the last oil change. Change your vehicle's oil if it has been 6 months since your last oil change even if the oil change indicator message is NOT illuminated. Change your engine oil more often if you drive your vehicle off-road for an extended period of time. Under no circumstances should oil change intervals exceed 6,000 miles (10,000 km) or 6 months, whichever comes first. At Each Stop For Fuel Check the engine oil level about five minutes after a fully warmed engine is shut off. Checking the oil level while the vehicle is on level ground will improve the accuracy of the oil level reading. Add oil only when the level is at or below the ADD or MIN mark. Check the windshield washer solvent and add if required....

...Marketing Case Project: General Motors [pic] Zach Bauer Matt Biersdorf Matt Flinn Amy Oliver Danielle Provance Marketing Strategies Professor Paul 11/08/2006 Executive Summary General Motors is one of the largest motor vehicle manufacturers in the world and has been a market leader for over 75 years. The company itself has been going through changes especially in the way that they are creating products and on an internal basis, however, there are some changes that the company still needs to overcome. One of the changes that General Motors has promoted is its’ Flexible Fuel Vehicles which do not run on solely petroleum, rather Ethanol 85. These vehicles cost only $150 more than a normal vehicle, however, the lacking of E-85 fueling stations throughout the nation are making it harder for consumers to take advantage of this “greener” technology while also saving money. The company has also decided to implement a widespread corporate restructuring initiative to help alleviate company debt as a result of rising costs of employee healthcare, benefits, and pensions. Such a plan includes the closure of over a dozen North American plants and manufacturing lines, as well as making substantial job cuts. This three-year endeavor is necessary in keeping General Motors in line with competitors. General Motors is struggling to keep up with its competition in hybrid technology. In order to become a major competitor in the automotive market GM needs to penetrate...

...(the circuits of oil, gas, electric ...) is from 680 external suppliers. The Engine of 9 and 11L of all the brands of Volvo Group operates in plant Vénissieux. The plant operates five days a week. The engine factory Vénissieux covers 10,000 m² and engine assembly operations are spread over two production lines, each 15 meters: the line ¾ and the line ¼. Each piece assembled has a serial and manufacturing number, which is common to all suppliers of Renault Trucks, to ensure the traceability of engines and to facilitate communication between the various stakeholders. This system of EDI (Electronic Data Interchange) also allows the company to gain speed. The causes of malfunction of an engine due to incorrect assemblage of the pieces can easily be identified and corrected in accordance with the Group's quality policy. Workers have 3 or 4 roles at the same time in the Assembly line. On the main assembly line, several robots are very important. These robots perform tasks in such quality that it would be impossible to assign this task to a human being. They are checking the robots work very often to make sure their condition. They use Automatic and Manual Kanban. For instance, when stock is low it automatically launches production. The production line of the factory splits therefore into four stages: * Basic Line (line ¾): Installation of main parts * Painting engine * Final line (line ¼): Installation of the parts according to the commercial motor * Test cells ...

...What are the outcomes of the stress coping methods being adopted? 7. Significance of the study This study is of importance to both practice and theory; 7.1. To Practice The findings from the research may be used in decision making in various industries and hopefully assist in enhancing stress management. It may be able to give alternative options in solving problems related to stress as well as enlighten the human resources policy makers in various organisations on how to manage stress. 7.2. To Theory This proposed study edifies existing literature. Studies by Hall (2013), Gardell et al (2012), Cox (2009), Heany(2008) and Lokk (2012) among other were quite generic, hence, the proposed study will provide literature related to the motor spares industry. 8. Literature review 8.1. Conceptual Fframework According to Fisher (2007), a conceptual framework is a description of relationships between the concepts being used. The author asserts that defining one’s concepts and creating a conceptual framework are means of simplifying the research task. They provide a map of one’s field of study. Fisher (2007) postulates that a conceptual framework is formed patterns of concepts and their interconnections, and analytical schemes. In light of this, this study is underpinned on the conceptual framework...
