Abstract

See full text

The present invention provides for a method for detecting leaks in a stuffing box of a two-stroke engine. Blended cylinder oil is produced by blending base fluid, at least one additive and a metal source having a first concentration. The metal source includes metals other than calcium and transition metals. The engine is operated by supplying the blended cylinder oil and a fuel to the engine cylinder. The concentration of the metal source is monitored using x-ray fluorescence spectroscopy ('XRF') to obtain a second concentration of the metal source. The first concentration of the metal source is compared to the second concentration of the metal source.
