Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A construction site requires a hydraulic excavator operating at 400 hp with an oil change interval of 75 hours due to dusty conditions. If the consumption factor from the manual is 0.008 gallons/hp/hour, estimate total oil usage in gallons over 150 hours.

💡 Hint: Remember to factor in the conditions given.

Question 2

If a company uses a 250 hp engine with a crankcase capacity of 12 gallons and runs it under moderate conditions with a consumption factor of 0.004 gallons/hp/hour, how often should they change the oil to prevent degradation?

💡 Hint: Think about the recommended intervals discussed earlier.
