Abstract
This paper presents the conduction current measurement of engine oil of a vehicle during engine oil usage. A motorcycle and car engine oil is the sample in this study. For motorcycle engine oil, sample was taken between 0 and 1500 km while for car engine oil, it was taken between 0 and 9000 km. The electrode was printed to PCB board and the oil was placed between electrode with 1 mm gap. The current was measured by a microammeter under voltage applied from 0.2 to 1.0 kV. From the result it is understood that the current decreases with the increase in travelling distance of each vehicle. Motorcycle engine oil shows a higher current decreasing rate as compares to car engine oil.
