Have you ever had a car that the motor had sludge or oil issues do to in-frequent oil changes?

Yes I have! and if you try to clean it out of the motor it smoke like a wood stove!Have you ever had a car that the motor had sludge or oil issues do to in-frequent oil changes?
No. But there are ways to deal with this. The most hardcore involves auto-rx.com. This product works. Less costly (and less effective) alternatives include Mystery Marvel Oil and Seafoam. These are additives you add to your oil (like 500 miles before an oil change) that clean out sludge and deliver it to the oil filter. It is important to replace the oil filter everytime you change your oil. If you want to keep systematically cleaning your engine, switch to synthetic oils. These prevent sludge build up and help remove some as well.


Note: If your car has over 75,000 miles, synthetic oils may not be the best idea. They tend to clean too well over time and cause leaks in seals.

The number one reason for oil changes is to prevent the formation of sludge. It's important to understand how sludge forms and how sludge formation is prevented.





How Sludge is Prevented


Additive in the detergent oils 'wash' any contaminant particles off of internal engine parts and hold these particles in suspension until the oil is changed. It's important to understand that these particles are too small to cause engine wear, but they do turn the oil a darker color. The key thing is to change the oil before the oil becomes too saturated with contaminants to hold any more, but color is not an indication of this condition.





How Sludge Forms


As explained above, modern detergent oils suspend contaminants so they do not settle on engine parts and form sludge. When the oil becomes saturated with contaminant particles new particles settle out of the oil onto the internal engine parts and form sludge. This is why it is so critical to perform oil changes before this level of contamination is reached. The only way to know if you're oil needs changing is to have an oil analysis done. Absent this, play it safe and follow the severe service interval specified in the owners manual. Remember that the contaminants come from the combustion process of the gasoline and and the air. Synthetic oil will not prevent these contaminants. Synthetics may be marginally better at suspending more contaminant particles, but not enough to prolong oil changes by much.





Never attempt to clean the inside of your engine with one of those engine flush procedures that many shops try to sell. If you've been diligent about oil changes there will be no sludge. If there is a lot of sludge then the last thing you want to do is to dislodge it all at once.

Yes... kerosene will clean out the gunk very well. Drain the oil and replace with kerosene. Then remove the coil wire to keep the motor from starting and then cycle or crank the motor. Again you do NOT want the engine to actually start. do this on and off for about a half hour allowing time for he starter to cool between crankings. Then drain all the kerosene out of the motor and remove the oil filter. Replace with new oil and a new filter. Always use the same type and brand oil.
