Amsoil Engine Flush

I don't think it had Butyl Cellosolve before. It's still a quick rinse product, but should do a better job at getting sludge rinsed out and even a good rinse product after fixing an engine oil system coolant ingress problem.

I have a bottle for the MIL's 2000 Avalon. As soon as the neck gets better.

 

[Tempest]

That MSDS is dated November 2004?

 

[SargeGTO]

Well if they didn't significantly change the soup I doubt they have to refile for minor changes to the formula.

 

[Pablo]

That is ODD. It was released 04-26-2007. Not sure if they just didn't put the new date on it.

 

[Pablo]

Man I would have remembered if it had Butyl Cell before.

I sent an email to tech to ask.

 

[SargeGTO]

Well Pablo you know the memory is the second thing that goes.

 

[Pablo]

Yeah my eyesight went first.

 

[sprintman]

Yours to eh? I used to go to sales conferences and yell at the projector operator to focus it properly. One day somebody yelled back "get yourself some glasses." He was right.

 

[Shup1]

All...

2-Butoxethanol, Glycol Ether EB = Butyl Cellosolve
Prolonged exposure to skin may cause issues with people who are dermal sensitive. Also on SARA list, I believe delisted few months back.

Same wonderful additive that is in 409 and purple stuff and most degreaser / cleaners.....

New that coatings background would pay off!

 

[Pablo]

Excellent Shup1!!!

Pablo,

Would this Amsoil Engine Flush be good for Lawn Mower Engines...??

 

[ThirdeYe]

I don't mean to intrude on your thread or steal business or anything like that, but if anyone needs some I have a leftover bottle that i'd be willing to sell. If this impedes with any rules or something, please delete this post

 

[Pablo]

3rd I - no problem. But I suggest since it's so inexpensive, just use it next oil change. Are you afraid it will hurt something? It won't, it's just help drain the old oil out. The good news is that it's the latest formula if you bought it new recently.

Hey Pablo,

How about answering my question?

"Pablo,

Would this Amsoil Engine Flush be good for Lawn Mower Engines...??"

 

[Pablo]

Tpitcher - OOPS -sorry. Sure, try 1/4-1/2 of a bottle for the idle. Then drain and flush with the remainder of the bottle.

 

[Quadrasteer]

FYI, it's probably a coincidence but I used this in my '99 Deville and the headgasket blew. I followed the directions exactly and before the idle time was finished I noticed steam coming from under the hood. These engines were known for their blown head gaskets anyway, I'd still use the product just not on an old Northstar.

 

[Pablo]

Yeah just the 15-20 minutes of idling probably made the leaky cooling system overheat.

So has it been different since Nov-2004?

 

[Pablo]

Yes. That seems to be about when they changed bottles, but I could be wrong.

For the nut cases like myself on here that like to change brands frequently, I have been thinking that maybe the Amsoil engine flush is not a bad idea to run before changing brands. Thoughts?
