Internal Engine Cleaner?

[240ZX]

Before you criticize the idea, why don't you contact the Liquid Wrench people and get their view on why it's on the can?

Tomohawk, you obviously don't understand the point here! By attempting to loosen or remove any of the built up sludge will result in problems, as noted from people with real life experiences! Liquid Wrench just wants you to buy their product. The stuff is a solvent for gawd sakes!!! :stupid:

[TomoHawk]

Here's what it says on the can:

"Bonus Uses:

--To quiet noisy valve lifters, add 8 oz. to crankcase oil.

--To dissolve sludge tars, gums and residues, add one pint to crankcase oil 150 miles before oil change. Drain oil, change oil filter cartridge. Refill with fresh oil and add Motor-Medic No.1 for improved performance."

I just use it on rusty bolts & nuts. If you have been reading the comments on this topic, you would have noticed that I'm not recommending or even suggesting to anyone that they should use it. The Liquid Wrench people suggest it.

And it's a "Quality American Product"

thx

If you are not suggesting that someone use it, why on earth would you even post it? Tomohawk, you will never change will you!? I don't know why I even bother responding to your nonsense! :disappoin

you guys you guys......

Mr. Derrick072 mentioned substituting a quart of ATF for oil, and you didn't pick up on that? I didn't take it as a suggestion, and I'm sure he mean it as one. That's the attitude more people need- and less presumptions.

Sometimes, information is just information.

SEAFOAM works

[TomoHawk]

SEAFOAM is a good product. I wanna try it this summer myself.

However, I have been told by service techs in my area, that using it is not recommended unless you have the equipment to capture the smokey-stuff that comes out of the tailpipe. I'll go out to the farm to do my engine.

Spudea-

It's funny you brought up Seafoam. Mr. UhOh7 was asking about removing the sludge from the oil and varnish from the inside of the engine. Seafoam is supposed to be used to treat carbon buildup on the intake,valves,heads, etc. Why did you mention Seafoam?

[spudea]

"When Added to Crankcase (Oil)

1.Frees sticky lifters and rings

2.Increases R.P.M.'s vacuum and compression

3.Cleans dirty parts

4.Removes moisture

5.Cleans PCV valve systems

6.Cleans dirty engine parts internally by removing harmful gums, varnish and carbon.

WORKS AND PERFORMS INSTANTLY."

From the product site and you can read it on the bottle.

Try substituting a quart of Marvel Mystery oil for a quart of oil, and use the Rotella oil from shell(available at Walmart)- this suggestion is my part of a thread from about a year ago.

Ah, Marvelous Mystery Oil......

Ok Tomo,

Get out of the plastic sheets and marvel Mystery Oil, give them a bath, and put them back in Carl's garage! That "Ah" and " " just had too much enjoyment in them...
