Quick Facts"},"content":{"rendered":"\n<p>Have you started to notice your car is leaking oil, and concerned the leak might cause a fire? Is motor oil flammable? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Motor oil is not a flammable liquid, but instead a combustible. Temperatures need to reach 300\u00b0 to 400\u00b0 Fahrenheit for motor oil to combust and burn. In fact, motor oil is among the least flammable fluids with a flashpoint of 302 to 392 degrees.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But this doesn&#8217;t mean that leaking engine oil <em>is not<\/em> capable of catching fire, it just requires a much higher <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Flash_point\">flashpoint<\/a> to burn. Flashpoint refers to the temperature at which a flammable liquid vaporizes, or is able to ignite.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, motor oil that leaks onto the vehicles exhaust manifold has the potential to burn and cause an engine fire. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In fact, an exhaust manifold can reach extremely high temperatures \u2013 in some cases, even upwards of 1200\u00b0 Fahrenheit. This is well above motor oil&#8217;s flashpoint, and a recipe for an engine fire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you think there&#8217;s even the slightest chance that your car could be leaking motor oil, take it to get checked out right away. It&#8217;s always better to be safe than sorry!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, let&#8217;s take a closer look at some of the surprising facts regarding the combustion properties of motor oil. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let&#8217;s dive right in!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why Isn&#8217;t Motor Oil Flammable?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Without getting too scientific, motor oils have long hydrocarbon chains. As a result, they&#8217;re difficult to break down. But that doesn&#8217;t mean they can&#8217;t catch on fire under certain circumstances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, if you spilled some <a href=\"https:\/\/mycarvoice.com\/news\/why-does-my-car-smell-like-burning-oil\/\">motor oil<\/a> on your BBQ pit and then lit it, the oil would probably catch on fire. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Motor oil can easily burn when there is the right amount of heat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What&#8217;s The Difference Between Flammable Materials From Combustible Materials?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Different materials can burn in different ways. Some materials, like gasoline, can burn in the air. This is because their vapors are combustible. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Other materials, like motor oil, need to be in contact with extreme heat before they will ignite.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To be considered flammable, an object has to ignite at <strong>200 degrees Fahrenheit<\/strong>. However, oil ignites at a much higher temperature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.osha.gov\/laws-regs\/regulations\/standardnumber\/1910\/1910.1450\">OSHA Laboratory Standard<\/a>&nbsp;defines a flammable liquid as <strong>any liquid having a flashpoint below 100 degrees Fahrenheit<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whereas a combustible liquid is defined as <strong>having a flashpoint at or above 100 degrees Fahrenheit<\/strong>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is an Engine&#8217;s Normal Operating Temperature Range?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A vehicle&#8217;s engine is designed to operate within a normal temperature range of 190 to 220 degrees Fahrenheit. However, depending on the make and model of the vehicle, this range may vary slightly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Engine temperature is regulated by the cooling system, which consists of a water pump, radiator, and thermostat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why do Some Engines That Have Never Leaked Oil Catch on Fire?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Some car fires have been caused not by leaks, but instead from a catastrophic engine failure. For example, if a connecting rod inside the engine fractures, the broken parts may crack the engine block. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An engine block that has a crack will allow <a href=\"https:\/\/mycarvoice.com\/news\/can-i-switch-oil-brands-in-my-car\/\">motor oil<\/a> to escape and drip onto hot engine surfaces. Surfaces such as the exhaust manifold or catalytic convertor can easily exceed 1200\u00b0 Fahrenheit. As a result, dripping motor oil on these surfaces will lead to a fire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Will Leaking Oil Cause Any Other Problems?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If <a href=\"https:\/\/mycarvoice.com\/news\/why-is-my-car-leaking-oil-after-an-oil-change\/\">oil is leaking<\/a> from your engine, it could eventually cause the engine to fail. Avoid this by checking your oil regularly and fixing any leaks as soon as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Motor oil is critical in controlling the temperature of your car&#8217;s engine by minimizing friction. If your car is low on oil due to an oil leak, it can lead to overheating or engine failure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Final Thoughts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Hopefully, we\u2019ve put your mind at ease and you know now that motor oil is not flammable. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, as highlighted in this post, motor oil under the right heat temperatures can be combustible and will burn. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So if you see or smell oil leaking from your engine, please get it looked at as soon as possible. It\u2019s not only a safety hazard, but it could also lead to some expensive repairs down the road. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Have you started to notice your car is leaking oil, and concerned the leak might cause a fire?
