Thanks, I participate in enough boards to know how to not take things personally I have no time for personal attacks and frankly there has been nearly none of that here but plenty of lively discussions. ( Go to the BMW or Jaguar boards if you want to be called an idiot or fat or have your family insulted) I've learned a lot, taught myself more and made some friends.
The fact that there is a board dedicated to oil blew my mind. And there are people who have poseted 20 K + times. who knew.
I came here got some info on how to deal with a sludged engine to save a great car I bought from a guy who washed it and waxed it and left in in the garage all winter but never maintained it, I mean at all. It had metal on metal brakes, bald tires ( his wife drove the car so I figured he had a HUGE insurance policy on her) . , coolant was nearly all water, soft top leaked like a sieve. But is was pretty and really clean for a 14 year old car. And I love Saabs (have had 10). This one had the VVT V6 and I will be tuning it to 400 hp once I am convinced the engine can take it and has enough longevity. Last time I had a sludged car, I cleaned with with a bunch of oil changes and then there was a rod knock, I used MMO and the knock went away. That was before the internetz. This time I wanted to learn more about oils and additives and I did, and then some

Not sure that is sarcasm since Molekule is an unknown to me.. I will look into it

That was my thinking given his credentials.

Interesting, I did not come across this when I was looking to clean my engine. Good to know, I am not stupid it seems.
New info for me is not to leave it in there that long. I will change to the HDEO this weekend (total 2500 with 20% MMO.
