2. Deglazing (engine mechanics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deglazing_(engine_mechanics)

   First, the lubricating oil in the engine will not adhere properly to the smooth surface, and in the absence of an oil film the resulting friction is increased. Secondly, while breaking in newly installed piston rings, a minute amount of wear must occur between rings and cylinder wall in order to seat the rings properly, and ensure a gas-tight seal.

3. Head gasket - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Head_gasket

   In an internal combustion engine, a head gasket provides the seal between the engine block and cylinder head(s). Its purpose is to seal the combustion gases within the cylinders and to avoid coolant or engine oil leaking into the cylinders. [1] Leaks in the head gasket can cause poor engine running and/or overheating.

4. End-face mechanical seal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/End-face_mechanical_seal

   In mechanical engineering, an end-face mechanical seal (often shortened to mechanical seal) is a type of seal used in rotating equipment, such as pumps, mixers, blowers, and compressors. When a pump operates, the liquid could leak out of the pump between the rotating shaft and the stationary pump casing. Since the shaft rotates, preventing this ...

5. Crankcase ventilation system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crankcase_ventilation_system

   Gaskets and shaft seals were intended to limit the leakage of oil, but they were usually not expected to entirely prevent it. The blow-by gases would diffuse through the oil and then leak through the seals and gaskets into the atmosphere, causing air pollution and odors. The first refinement in crankcase ventilation was the road draught tube.

6. Radial shaft seal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radial_shaft_seal

   Depending on the seal type these two angles are varied to create a pressure distribution at the seal contact line which has a steeper slope on the oil side of the seal. The shallower the slope on the oil side of the seal, the wetter the seal will run. The spring is positioned such that axially the centerline of the spring is biased to the air ...
