    Cleaning Sludge from Under Valve Covers

    I just finished hand cleaning the rocker arms and areas around it. It looks sort of better now. I am going to switch over to Pennzoil Platinum High Mileage 10w30. I am going to run it for 3,000 miles for the next two oil change intervals and report back the results. Just to throw it out their. I...

    Cleaning Sludge from Under Valve Covers

    I just pulled my valve covers off of my 1999 Ford Mustang today and I see what I believe to be sludge. How should I go about fixing this problem. I change my oil literally every 3,000 miles sometimes even before using Castrol GTX High Mileage 10W30. The car currently has 196,500 miles on it. I...

    Changing filter every other OCI

    Changing filter every other OCI

    I change my oil filter every time I change my oil. I cant find the logic in putting an engine that costs thousands of dollars at risk for an oil filter that costs less than $10. I actually pay $3.27 for my Purolator Classics from Wal-Mart. But to each its own. I suggests that you veer to the...
