BEST way to remove engine sludge (prevent low pressure)

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

One of the biggest culprits that causes low oil pressure is engine sludge...especially when it builds up on the pick-up tube in the oil pan. You do want to be proactive when it comes to keeping the sludge out of your engine. Changing your oil every 3000 miles is a good start. Even if synthetic oil starts to look dirty it's a good idea to change it. This video shows an effective method on how to get the grit out of your engine. Hope you enjoy the video.

    Mechanic here. I can't even begin to list all the things wrong with this. That "grit" is the metal shavings caused by using kerosene. Pro tip: Change your oil at the proper interval and use a quality filter. You will be fine.

    In older engines this is actually true. The sludge acts as a seal for all the bearings. That's why you should never clean out your oil like that or even with oil circuit cleaner in an older engine. There are also CONs for this in newer engines with VVT and things like that. As long as you have no problem, don't try it. The cleaner might release grit and sludge, which can go into your VVT solenoids or similar things and block them.

If ya go puttin a solvent in yer oil then YEP it's gonna clean the hell outta some seals & bearings. Not to mention help all the sludge & gunk travel thru the rest of your engine. But wtf do I know.

    I used to be a GM mechanic at a Chevrolet dealership and had a local mailman who owned a 1972 Impala with a 454 in it We did all of his oil changes and he always demanded 6 quarts of oil and 1 quart of ATF. At around 200,000 miles (with no engine repairs) I changed valve cover gaskets on it and was amazed. The engine was SPOTLESS inside! It looked like a brand new engine! Last I heard was that he got over 400k out of that car with no engine repairs before he sold it and bought a new car.

I been working on some 80's model 351Windsor HO, getting ready to take one out a1985 E-250 that has 35,000 miles and don't want to turn over after a small fire by the mechanical fuel pump.Also have 1982 1 ton duelly with 1983 351W, I been looking for another small block to put in while I rebuild the 351W HO.Carbuerated, I found a 300-6 cylinder, not sure about it yet.Still looking.

I'd never do it in my own Audi, my method is if there's thick gunky oil or extremely black I'd change the oil/filter once a month for 3 months and continue on every 4000, or 9 months.

    As a journeyman HD mechanic I'm horrified. If you want to destroy your engine and starter this is the quickest way to do it. There are pickup screens before the oil pump and a filter in the circuit. Rotating your engine with kerosene as a lubricant will destroy your mains and valvetrain. This completely disregards oil wedge theory and points to sludge as the cause of most engine failures, not true. Don't do this, bad idea. Also, engine oil gets dark because it has detergents in it, most large diesels will have jet black oil after 30mins of running. Color of oil is less important than viscosity and acid content(or total base number). The creator of this video is not posting proven maintenance techniques.

    I don't know what the negatives will end up being from this, but even really sludgy engines are usually cleaned up by using premium synthetic oil with relevant additive packages. For example, Mobil 1 High Mileage just indicates to do a few shorter.oil change intervals so the oil can slowly and safely dissolve deposits into solution for removal during the drain.

    The grit you have found is in the pan and does not enter the engine oil galleries. This is the sump reservoir that delivers oil to the filter. The filter prevents this debris from entering the engine. If you feel compelled to flush this debris, then pour the kerosene down the dipstick tube with the drain plug removed and capture the kerosene in a container. This will prevent the kerosene entering the engine, diluting the new engine oil, and causing a dry start after the oil change.

    5.3L chevy LS "vortec" engine will often go to 350,000 miles if maintained well. A good synthetic or high mileage oil has detergents and anti-foaming agents in then which will clean the carbonized oil "sludge" out of the engine over time. This idiot is putting and pumping kerosene into an engine that also supplies oil to the bearing in his turbo. This guy is an idiot and should not be listened to. If you want to mix something into your oil to help with sludge use a half quart of ATF (automatic transmission fluid). You don't need any special kind since I highly doubt you had an L33 aluminum block 5.3L. You're best off just using a quality oil filter and royal purple oil and change them regularly. I dont know what you drive now but if you want to keep it running good then dont try to lubricate the friction surfaces with a strong solvent like kerosene. Just an FYI. Gotta love those LS engine though.

    Hey guys im gonna show you how to prematurely deteriorate your crank seals. So what you need is kerosene. Kerosene is pretty caustic which is ideal for doing the opposite of conditioning. And those pieces of black in the flush may just be one of those, before mentioned, crank seals just breaking down to what would be the equivalent of nibbled cheese. And voila! There you have it folks Kerosene Is rich In fatty properties which remain after the evaporation of the grease. Every time an area or piece of rubber is exposed to a kerosene mixture the rubber Is deprived of more of its strength. Eureka! We've just "F'd up" our crank seals. 👏👏👏👏

Its highly detergenated and completely safe. Its also a great way to break in a new motor. ( I learned alot from my father who was one of the best mechanics ever. Also trained & worked 63S USA.) For the skeptics about women mechanics. 😀

    My first car was a junkyard w126 300se, it hadn't run for years, after ceaning the tank, flushing the gas lines and cleaning the injectors and kjet filter, I decided to tackle the oil. I I drained the oil, removed the sump, cleaned out the sludge and bought the cheapest 5w30 oil, and GUD oil filter I could get my hands on. She started right up, made a bit of tapid noise but idled smoothly. At the time I didn't have a driver's licence, so I asked my dad to drive it to and from work every day for about two weeks. After the two weeks I drained the oil, again it wasn't pleasant, I spent a seventeen year olds equivalent of an arm and a leg on a Bosch oil filter and Liqui Molly's semi synthetic oil for older engines (20w50). Ran like a charm! No tapid noise, instant oil pressure. This is the best way to "flush" your engine in my opinion...

The grove fills with oil so that your crankshaft etc are actually not touching any other metal surface ! ie there is a fine film of oil in-between the two, You add kerosene to that its just metal to metal and you will have scored all those nice soft bearing shells ! Just change oil regularly and let the filter do its work

    And what if he just got the car, and it’s oil is disgusting (like this) and you suspect that sludge may be in the oil galleries and the cam phasers and actuators ? Then as long as the engine doesn’t start, there’s really no pressure on the crank bearing and only valve spring pressure (indirectly) on the cam bearings. The vast majority, even of quality mechanics are simply NOT going to pull apart the entire engine to try and save a cheap car, but this might do it. There are lots and lots of cars that already weren’t taken care of, too late to lecture about timely oil changes for those cars.

    On older cars that I have owned; I drain the old oil, replace oil plug, fill up with ATF and run on idle for 20 minutes. Drain, add new oil and new filter. You can also add half a quart of ATF with new oil change and drive for 100- 300 miles to build up oil pressure. ATF does an excellent job @ removing sludge safely as its petroleum oil and it doesn't remove too much sludge or deposits. Gotta be careful not to clog your oil screen.

    I agree with most of what you said. But IMO i would not want to run an engine with ATF in the oil, for any longer than 15 to 30 seconds, if even that long. Then I'd drain the oil, change the filter, and refill with some cheap oil to do a "rinse" and run the engine for 15 - 20 minutes. And drain and refill for good, after that. I just have a problem with running the engine with ATF or other solvents in the oil, it seems very counter-productive.

    Sad to see a car treated like this. I bought a used 1979 Celica Gt in 1987 to drive back and forth to work. The original owner had done 3 or 4 oil changes in 8 years. Surprisingly the car ran pretty good. The 20R engine was a beast. A trusted old mechanic told me what to do to clear some of the sludge. I drained the oil, changed the oil filter, added 2 quarts cheap oil and 3 quarts of transmission fluid. I drove it around for a couple of hours, not revving the engine. Drained the oil and was amazed at the chunks of sludge that came out. I did this once more in a month. I ran cheap oil in the car for the next 3 years. I was told that ATF had high levels of detergents. In 1990 I traded it in for a new Isuzu pickup.

But as far as dark oil goes, I've got a VW 1.9tdi turbo diesel, so I don't even hard to start the engine for my oil to get dark, it's crazy man. Even using fully synthetic it gets jet black immediately. I just figure that's the nature of a diesel. Now if a gas engine did that I'd want to do something like you've done here.

I didn't realize oil pressure guagr was causing low oil and fluctuating oil pressure also sludge was found prior coming out of the oil plug when changing oil. Well since I had low pressure reading I decided to go ahead and pull the oil pan. After the kerosene flush. I found about 2 inches of sludge still in the engine. I was glad I pulled the pan because this was likely to cause major engine damage.

    In the early 80s the old-timers would drain the oil, leave the old filter on and pour in a 50/50 mix of diesel and kerosene, then run the engine for 20 minutes These guys used their pickups every day to check their wells here , and these pickups would run 8 to 10 hours a day continuously 7 days a week. When we would tear em down they were surprisingly clean, especially the ones that ran on propane,. 90 percent of the time the reason for the rebuild was wore out oil pumps and plastic timing chain gears.

    As an auto mechanic I have heard of old school guys using this technique. It’s better to use a quart of transmission fluid with clean oil, granted it can be cheap oil because it’s getting immediately flushed, followed by what you generally run the vehicle on. This is my preferred method. Sure costs alittle more but only needs to be done every 10-15k miles on today’s cars.

    Whatever is in the sump will stay in the sump, the oil pump will pick up oil and send it thru the filter which will catch the smaller bits. The bigger bits will stay on Tue bottom of the sump. You may save some wear on the oil pump but like many comments here... Just change your oil regularly and use a good filter and you're good.

Then let it drip for an hour before adding oil & filter. That 1959 Olds Super 88 lasted us 15 years until my mom ignored the " low oil" light and burned it up. The oil drain plug gasket had cracked. That's why I always remove the factory plastic gasket and put a copper one on at 1st change.

    Your methods may be effective and are well intended. I agree that removing contaminants from an engine is beneficial. However, those pieces (and grit) you show typically don't circulate through the engine and remain in the pan. If they are lifted by the oil pump, then the oil filter will trap them before going through the motor. (Viewers please lookup the filtering efficiency at stated particle size of the oil filter you currently use.) Many will believe that the motor medic flush you showed to be 'basically' kerosene, when in fact its mostly mineral oil with a lesser percentage of kerosene (look up the SDS on the product) because kerosene has little to no lubricity. The fear that viewers may intentionally use straight kerosene as they would the motor flush you showed may be misinterpreted and is real. The average backyard mechanic may not wish to pull a fuse to perform this, and potentially may cause damage by idling the engine until the oil is hot. Keep in mind, in your process there is kerosene left in oil passages through out the motor and this of course will stay with the new oil. This may not be desirable.

    If you get kerosene hot enough (well within the normal operating temperature on some components) it can become quite volatile with deadly and catastrophic results. Kerosene has a Flashpoint between 100 and 150F and everything under the hood of your car is usually over 100F. Now it doesn't necessarily combust at 150F, but it's not real hard to get it to combust at that temperature. When I feel compelled to flush an automotive crankcase, I drain the oil, refill with ATF, let it idle 5 to 10 minutes, drain the ATF, replace the oil filter and refill with the correct viscosity motor oil. Some might call me crazy, but at least I'm not putting light volatiles in a pressurized crankcase and then heating it up. Lol

    All that grit in your oil would be a fundamental failure of your oil filter. Likely picked it up from the catch pan or something falling in the catch pan from under the car. Also, not sure those short cranks fully circulate the kerosene which is why a good flush like liqui moly pro flush is a better choice.

    On several vehicles that have had issues with lifter noise, I cured it with ATF flush, cleans the "gunk" out of the tiny lifter lube holes. I drain a qt of oil out before I do an oil change, add in 1 qt ATF, drive it for a while like that, then do a normal oil change. The results are immediate. To prevent the lifter noise from returning, synthetic oil plus 1 qt Marvel Mystery Oil. Both vehicles have +200K miles and neither leak a drop of oil.

    Don't do it. Kerosene is very dry and will strip any remaining lubricant from the working surfaces and it wil damage and dry the seals, causing them to leak. Put about 1/2 pint of diesel in the hot engine before draining the old oil out, let it idle for about 10 mins. (don't drive it) then drain the oil. I have worked on Audis, and they are very prone to sludging; make sure you use a fully synthetic oil and change regularly, more often if they are doing short trips or in adverse weather conditions.
