Uni report - Lubrication of diesel engines

[Andeh13]

Im a student at university and as part of a group project im part of i need to write an informal report on the Lubrication of diesel engines. Iv searched the internet high & low but havnt found much in the way of detailed infomation. Speaking to our lecturer he suggested using some of the car clubs & forums online and trying to find some of the infomation from owners who may have serviced or rebuilt their engines.

Like i said above, the report is based on the lubrication of diesels engines, going into detail about what parts need lubrication, whether it is under high pressure or low pressure, and generally the gist of how the oil flows.

Any details, links or general infomation would be much appriciated.

Many thanks guys

And for future reference, don't create topics which get shortened to "Uni report - lubrication"

^ Agreed. This is probably the second time I visited this forum, and I only did so because I clicked the most recent topic under general discussions
