  • Flushed my engine today and....

    I think EVERYONE SHOULD DO IT. I went and bought 5 courts of store bran oil cheap crap, 5 courts of valvoline, cheap oilfilter and a good one....


    change my oil to the cheap crap and cheap filter...... Turned car on and washed it while it was on ( about 20 mins of idling)

    let it cool down and changed the oil again...

    To my amazment.. The color of the oil was JUST as dark as the oil change b4 it was BLACK.. i thought i would just have a small tint of blackness or somthing.... but i emptied it and put on the good filter and the good oil......

    I would recomend this to anyone.... no I couldnt tell a difference while driving... But i felt a differnce mentally knowing im taking good care of my baby and shes not going to break down on me in the middle of no where..... You will be amazed ...

    Did that when I bought my car, drove around with the cheap citgo oil ($.89/qt), and refilled it with amsoil as soon as the right filter came in. It wasn't horribly dirty, but I do feel that I yanked some crap out.

      yeah and i bet if you put the expensive oil in and would have drained it it would have been dirty as he** also. it will take alot more than a couple oil changes to have the oil looking new after the car is running

        You would be suprised at how many people tell us we could not have changed there oil because the new oil is so dirty. (used to work at an oil change place). A good motor flush like B-12 chemtool also helps.

          Just pour some seafoam in there about 500 miles before you change the oil. You will be amazed at the chunks of **** that will come out.

              When you get the seafoam, read the back of it. It has MANY of applications, but I only used it to clean my Throttle Body.
              You could probably get super-human strength if you drink it...j/k (or clean out your internals)

                From what I've read, seafoam has many versatile uses. I'm most curious to what super powers it would give someone. X-Men 2 comes out tomorrow, how about a few people drink some, and tell us how it goes? It'd be sweet to show off your super powers to the other movie-goers as you're leaving the theatre. They'll think you're the ****, and women everywhere will love you. [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]

                    That's cool, you've already found one of the super powers of Seafoam. If you drink a half bottle, you become asian! Go try some math problems, see if you can do them any better now.
