This totally flashed me back to 1971, at the tender age of 13 I spent some time with a very patient neighbor that was doing an engine swap on a very stock 55 Chevy convertible for its owner. It had the V8, IIRC mileage was in the high 80s and the engine was absolutely full of sludge. This particular engine had no oil filter from the factory. I learned so much from this guy, he and his wife had some issues and he moved elsewhere. This is where I really caught the bug to work on cars. At age 65, I still do!

Back in 70s a friend got a 56 Nomad with original 265 and no oil filter at all. He took off one of the valve covers with ' Chevrolet ' stamped in it and set it on the ground. He went back to the motor and there was a valve cover with ' Chevrolet ' stamped in it. Sludge mold.

This took me back to the early 1960s I took the drain plug out of a (1923 aprox) Willeys Overland, now this was a one and a quarter inch plug, nothing came out? I poked it with a screw driver and a lot of sludge finally came out. Ted from down under.

I am also rebuilding a 6.0 (364) engine. I few things I have learned about these engines is that the valve cover bolts, and the intake bolts you should replace because you can't buy the rubber seals separately. The valley pan cover, most times needs to be replaced on the Gen III engine because the wells where the knock sensors sit corrode in the seal area. If you were to swap out the connecting rods to Gen IV style rods, you need to balance the rotating/ reciprocating assy. I needed to add weight to mine, because the rods were 32 grams heavier, the pistons were 24 grams heavier. Probably missing some stuff, I'm 65 years old, can't remember like I did when I was younger. Sorry for getting long winded. Hope this helps you out, nobody helped me, learned as I went

It could be the result of a known problem with the cylinder heads developing cracks allowing a small amount of DexCool to work its way into the oil. Affected about 1/3 of all 4.8 & 5.3s from 2001 thru 2006. The aluminum was not hot enough during casting. Led to porous aluminum. While it held (initially), the corrosive nature of DexCool slowly ate into the aluminum. It starts with a smell of coolant but no noticeable loss and not enough to show in the oil. It gets worse such that you're down a quart of coolant over a year and you start seeing DexCool condensing on the inside of your oil filler cap. Not a fan of radiator leak stuff, but the copper based additive did buy me three years until I traded the YukonXL in. GM did extend the warranty on the affected engines from 36K to 60k. However, every time I took it in, they claimed they could not find any leak. Not surprisingly, after my mileage surpassed the 60K mark, they told me I needed to replace the heads. I got the regional manager involved and after they realized I'd kept all my service records complaining about the coolant, agreed to honor it as a warranty claim. I scheduled the work, and upon dropping off the vehicle was informed that due to GM filing bankruptcy, the warranty claim was no longer being honored. And that is how GM weaseled their way out of paying for a whole bunch of engines which suffered a serious manufacturing defect.

This reminds me of a forty year old story. Dads mate had a 3.5 V8 Mercedes that he wasn't servicing. If they are not serviced the valve train fails. When, eventually he did have it serviced, the workshop manager was amazed he hadn't worn out the rockers. What the owner had done was put a bottle of Wynnes in the motor.

While in College, I worked for a rural NY Chevrolet dealership. They sold many trucks that had 400cu in small block engines. It was not unusual to find sludge. We got into the habit to place a quart of diesel in the crankcase, turn it over or run it, then watch the black sludge drain for a long period of time. We could then rebuild them or sell them to the drag racers.

That is why I like your videos, it brings me back. I and a friend of mine would buy old cars pull the engines, clean them up, new rings and rod bearings, make sure the valves were seated and not burnt and put them back together. It worked every time we did it, old oil burners and smokers would run like new. Sometimes we would do it without pulling the motor, try that now days, impossible.

Compared to my cheap three jaw pullers, yours is way better. I love that locking collar. About 4 years ago I noticed sludge coming out my 5.3 oil drain plug. It was a shock because I've religiously changed hot motor oil, complete with a record documenting changes every 5000 km, 80 changes over 400,000 km. I scratched my head and wondered if it was the cheap motor oil I had used a couple of years before. In response I flushed the case with seafoam, then added seafoam and motor oil, flushed again a week later, then flushed a month later, and so on. Still running fine today!

I use diesel fuel instead of gasoline for a makeshift solvent. A lot safer. On smaller pieces a follow up with Brakleen to wash off the residual diesel oil. Always use the Brakleen in a well ventilated area, (outside). You use a lot less Brakleen and you don't have to breath the nasty fumes.

I’m glad I stumbled upon your channel. You know your stuff, have a bit of a sense of humor and I just listened/watched you say something about ring gap and nitrous. Right up my alley! I have an LM7 in my 2000 Yukon xl that I’ve owned for 20+ years and I have another long block out in the garage that’s been under my bench for a few years. I intended doing a turbo build, picked up the Holley/Hooker LS turbo manifolds and crossover to swap the 5.3 into my 85 Cutlass but I can’t bring myself to replace the big block Chevy conversion I’ve already built that has been sorted out for about 10 years. It is perfect so I’m not going to change it. My 5.3 will be a spare for my GMC if Mother Nature doesn’t reclaim it to the northeast earth before I need it… Keep em coming. Love the videos (and the homemade 3/8 drive balancer puller extension) 😉👍

In '74 I was doing a oil change on a '73 Monte Carlo. Oil was really dirty. Engine was running rough, so changed plugs. Didn't change running. Head mechanic had me pull the valve cover. WOW , a mold of the cover completely encased the rockers. Flushed the engine, added fresh oil and filter ,engine smoothed right up. Customer said he only used 30w nondetergent oil. Lesson learned. I was 19 at the time.

Hi Kenny, I just found your channel and subscribed. I ran into severe sludge that developed in my 2003 4.8 between one oil change and the next. It turned out that I had a known problem with the heads from a particular supplier which had issues with porosity in the castings which eventually led to cracks forming. That allowed coolant leak through into the oil return holes and right down into the pan.

One is clearly engine oil that is not changed often enough., The other is when an engine oil made from crude oil that contains paraffin (non-synthetic Quaker State, Pennzoil both come to mind) is used. With the availability of really good, high quality synthetic engine oils, which are more tolerant of infrequent oil changes, there is no reason for the inside of an engine to end up looking like this one. There might be excuses, bit there certainly is no good reason for it happening. Disgusting... All that said, Kenny, thank you for making these videos. Despite how many years of experience I have in the auto repair industry I always learn something new, or at the very lease I get affirmation that my background and experience are still viable and of value. Thus, even at 69 years of age I am relevant.

I always hope people that treat/neglect their vehicles like this engine never have children, changing your oil is like changing a diaper its a dirty job has to be done! if you don't well you get the point.

Saw on some new channel that the host said it was not good to use impact when pulling a harmonic balancer. I've definitely done it. I see you doing it. What would be the harm, potentially? Is it just a DIYer trying to sound like he knows something?

Great question. Using an impact gun to install one can be risky if not done correctly. It's important to pay close attention and not pound the balancer in or you could snap the bolt, or strip the crank threads. I don't know anyone who doesn't use an impact if it's available. Unless we're talking about a liquid filled balancer just because they're so delicate. The factory recommends handheld tools because they know people tend to go hard with impact guns.

Had a friend who sent his crankshaft out to get a keyway cut into it.

I dont think the oil pump was doing an awful lot pumping sludge. Hopefully its just the shells on the bottom end that are scored. 😱

The mess in the pan could have been predicted when the valve covers were removed. I wouldn't put this engine in a vehicle w/o a complete rebuild. The bores got to be worn. In the olden days pistons were knurled and oversize rings fitted for a few more miles. I don't see it worth the trouble if you don't rebore.
