What were your oci on it and does the varnish (& sludge?) affect how the engine runs?

Most all of the old Nissan 3.0 would look that way regardless of oil brand. They also would run forever as long as the T-belt was kept serviced.
OCI 4K miles ,on maxlife currently..This engine only holds about 3.5 qts of oil..what you see in the picture is varnish and some hard carbon deposit. Currently have 192k miles burns a quart of oil every 4k miles and runs strong and does not smoke.

This is not true as I have owned too many Nissan's to count. My engines NEVER looked like that. That was poor maintenance in that picture period.

1.5L Protege 3-5k with Pennzoil High mileage and some MMO once, then PYB with Rotella 15w40.

The black oil was when I first got the Regal. Since then I have used PP, PU, PYB and it cleaned up.
my f150 bought at 125k unknown history
valve cover off same engine, 04 f150 (been running some cleaners)
Fill hole and dipstick and oil cap, 1984 Chevrolet Camaro 2.8l V6, (1)63,556 miles, at a lot, just getting back into regular service. oil changed less than 100 miles ago w valvoline 10W-30, filter too w Purolator. it "smokes on start-up" then runs perfect
