The only 60 through 70s sludge was in engines that weren't maintained.Not bad at all. No real sludge. I'd use mobil 1 high mileage as its claimed to be a cleaning oil. You could run a 10w 40 with kreen for an oci. But really there is not much there, compared to the late 70's 80's sludge. Just good oil changed regularly will do a lot. NO ATF.
I guess @AutoMechanic thinks my post is funny, but it was a serious question if people actually use it that way as it says you can on the label as a sort of flush before a change...Do people actually put Seafoam in the oil still? Does it work?
I’ve used it many times. Once we used it in a 1973 Ford Gran Torino when I was in school and it smoked so much the nursing home next door called the fire department and they showed up and said they had never seen anything like it before. It works great.I guess @AutoMechanic thinks my post is funny, but it was a serious question if people actually use it that way as it says you can on the label as a sort of flush before a change...
