Fill sump with clear kerosene. Use a fresh filter. Run motor for no more than 5 minutes. Immediately drain the sump. The entire motor is now flushed. Now, IMMEDIATELY add a fresh filter and the correct spec crank fluid, run the motor 20 minutes, drain and fill again. Why? The kerosene strips chemicals from gaskets and seals and will continue to do so until diluted. There’s a slower way, also! Run an oil with a slightly lower cold flow rate than the motor specs and add a half-a-quart extra. (Example, running 0W20 instead of 5W20.) Then change the oil after 1500 miles, on the nose. Doing this a few times will do the same thing, albeit it nowhere near as thoroughly or as quickly but that can be a life saver with really fouled up motors! Slow and steady, steady and slow.

Como amigo es sacar el aceite viejo y reemplazarlo completamente con puro keroseno? Hacer funcionar el motor por 3:30, 4:20 minutos hacer un doble cambio de aceite para eliminar el keroseno???? 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

For that many K's your engine was clean already from the start. DOHC are always dirtier at the top as the oil doesn't flow around as easily up there and most of the condensation and vapours from PCV settle there. Some of that patina is meant to be there as it is partially oil additives and film. If it wasn't your engine would be dead.

I flush my coyote with a weed pump sprayer from home depot. I hook a 3/8 fuel line to the sprayer head and use a 1/4 NPT air compressor fitting to thread into the Oil Pressure Sending unit threads on the block. For my car, that is next to the oil filter. I pre fill an oil filter then install, then i just pump 2 quarts of cheap , thin oil through it. Then i pull the oil filter, dump it out or use a new one, and put a quart of the appropriate oil(for my supercharged coyote i use 5w50) and just re prime the engine with that. It works great! Make sure you clean the hell out of the pump sprayer and run some oil through it into a container before pumping into the engine to make sure there's no lose plastic pieces. This method is great for just priming the engine or flushing out all the oiling channels and the lash adjusters/cam bearings/ etc etc.

@eddiew.6485 12 күн бұрын

Real simple: they don't work. Slow and steady wins the race.....2 or 3 short mileage oil changes using a high quality brand of oil and filter over a short period of time would do what you wish to accomplish. "Fast fix" stuff like this will definitely dislodge some carbon/sludge that possibly will clog a passage, the pump screen, or put the filter into bypass. The comment to fill your sump with Kerosene.......OMG! That has no lubricating properties whatsoever. Running that would give you the equivalent of an extra 40 to 60 thousand miles of wear on your engine.
