Somora Motor Parts in conjunction with John Laverty Motor Factors of Dundlak, recently organised a special information evening to explain the dangers of using unsuitable oils in vintage and classic cars. 


The presentation was given to the North East Vintage Car Club and was delivered by Tom Bruggeman, the Technical Support Manager for Kroon Oil. Kroon is a Dutch lubricant specialist with over 100 years experience in oils so it very well placed to advise on vintage and classic car lubrication requirements. 

Tom explained that Kroon Oil is a true oil specialist, focused on the development and manufacture of premium lubricants. This includes a comprehensive range specialist oils for Vintage and Classic vehicles.

The emphasis of the latest generation of oils is on emission reduction and this will generally mean low viscosity oils which are not suitable for older engine designs. These oils also contain additives and detergents that can cause caked-on impurities in the engine to become detached and can attack older seals and rubbers. Kroon Classic oils are specially formulated for classic petrol and diesel engines to provide suitable lubrication and protection against wear and corrosion prolonging the life of treasured vehicles.

Tom was also able to show how new technology can enhance old technology with a demonstration of the Kroon Oil online product recommendation tool. This has a comprehensive listing of oils and lubricants recommended for all types of vehicle and impressively features recommendations for models dating back to the 1920s.

The online tool can be accessed at www.kroon-oil.com
