The technicians at my work said that you should not use an engine flush, just regular oil changes.Originally posted by MattF
I have heard of people experiencing oil leaks after using an engine flush.Comment

Cheers. I replace it every 2000 to 3000kms, so it should be fairly clean, butOriginally posted by lclascaris
an extra bit of cleaning out ne'er hurts.
I'm going to use Nev's method and give it a quick run through with some fresh
oil, then a full oil/filter change. Just waiting for it to cool down a tad so I don't
end up with hot oil down the arm.

Yeah, but I'm the sad git with no life. (Or should I say the sulking sad git).Originally posted by Chillitt
Ne'er liked leaving oil too long between changes. Besides, got to make up
for my C.M inadequacy somehow. (I'm ignoring them now 
).

It's amazing how mucky that second lot of oil is when it comes back out.
Fifteen minutes on fast idle with a few blips on the throttle, came out all
nice and black. Should be sorted for the winter now.
Does everyone aim for the full mark on their dipstick, or does anyone do
the same as I and try to keep it between half and three quarters? No
reason for asking other than curiousity.Comment

It is for some. Depends on how the vehicle is used. 2/3K over a short period is probably a little soon for an oil change but if you only do this in 12 mths then the oil will be way past it's use by date.Originally posted by Chillitt

Yeah. I found engine oil does a pretty good job at flushing.Originally posted by MattFIt's amazing how mucky that second lot of oil is when it comes back out.

Full. The more oil the better. Diesel oil has to pick up and suspend all the soot so more oil equals better capacity to do this.That's my thoughts anyway.Originally posted by MattF

hot flushes
Hiya
My method for an interior (engine,,not me personally) clean out is one Gallon of cheapy oil and one gallon of derv mix em together and pour it in (old filter still on ) run it for 10/15 mins and then drain out. Once it 's drained out I give a quick start and a rev just once to chuck out any oil form the pump and oil ways . Works for me
