[@crazysexycool180]

Thank you,

[@thomas000187]

Your definitely the best mechanic I've ever seen. I could tell right off from the cleanliness of your shop, and your squared away uniform that your the real deal. Then i seen you use a dollar store cleaner in place of an engine flush product, with a quart of oil in an engine that has a five quart capacity. Then the knocking started, but i knew that you must know what your doing. I was thinking "oh hell yeah, this guys a genius" and told myself to not worry. And then to have the insight and knowledge that you obviously possess. To know that all the debris has been cleared from the pan and pickup tube. Again, sir you are the brightest, most knowledgable, educated, and highest trained professional i have ever seen. Bravo to you...

Good video man. I saved my old '89 Jaguar from having a heart attack. I was the 3rd owner and found the motor to be dirty inside. I flushed-out the straight 6 a couple of times with diesel fuel, stopped the tapping noise and improved performance. Never used the Marvel oil though.

@@crazysexycool180 Hey maybe you can answer this one... I have seen a bunch of videos on here of guys doing engine soaks with marvel mystery oil or seafoam... where they remove the spark plugs and pour the stuff in.... my understanding is that this is to clean out the piston rings... the question is have you or could you try this with totally awesome and do you think it would work? And potential danger in trying this? Thanks I have a 95 saturn sl2 that is burning oil and from what I can tell it might be stuck or clogged rings.

[@shemp308]

Had a engine I had to do valve cover gaskets on in the mid 70s. That you could read the letters in the sludge off the covers! I can give you a helpful trick! Put the covers on and fill it with 5 gallons of diesel fuel. Over night. Better if you can warm the engine first. Still need to pull the oil pan but it will come clean easier. Done this many times. You can strain and use it again to flush the engine a few times helps. You can also use the same directions he does in this video! I never used this method but I am sure it works. This guy is without a doubt good at what he does.

[@crazysexycool180]

thanks

[@topfti9663]

do you fill with 5 gallons of 5 litres ?

[@talknheadz]

michael shampine does this help with 1 cylinder having low compression by cleaning the walls??

[@TungstenCarbideTempe]

Yeap. And dont overpay for those engine flush products that will cost 3fold vs diesel. One thing to remember is to idle the car when you sub. Diesel for oil.

I would disagree... Yeah, it's a mild lubricant, but it doesn't work like this does. My 5.4lt triton is finally not ticking after I damn near replaced everything. Timing, phasers, rocker arms, lifters, vvt solenoid. Nothing helped!!! This solved the problem!

[@moonolyth]

Used to get that, thought they changed names or sold out. I use what is now sold at Wali world ... (Basic.. cleaner and degreaser). Thought it was the same stuff as it smells the same irritates the throat etc. Fantastic stuff for pots and pans, I soak my expensive sable art brushes for a couple hrs and it removes dry paint. Wash welded metal parts before painting.. love the stuff.. Great video man !!!!

its very obvious this person severely neglected this engine. my method saved the car and keep it out the junk yard. the rods arn't knocking and the car runs cooler, more powerful, and quiet. furthermore this person had no money and was gonna scrap the car and start walking. he's elderly and disabled. so i did some charity work and helped a disabled person, my heart could not stand to see him catch another hardship. So for that ill be your fucking idiot. oh yea i got you beat by 10 year on the motor building, check my channel for some insights.

[@MBE-ib3jy]

Well worth doing before and after compression tests, old sludge tends to get behind piston rings etc causing loss of power. I use the BG engine flush, old oil comes out smelling lovely, last vehicle I used it on gained 43% in compression with just a flush, nothing else. I use flush on every service now, as part of the maintenance. Today’s companies are asking too long service intervals for the oil.

Never saw anyone put water-based products into an engine crankcase before. Seems pretty risky. I could see using kerosene or SeaFoam in those quantities. Mixing only 1 quart of oil with several quarts of a water-based de-greaser is a recipe for disaster. IMO

[@watcherwatchmen7785]

Yet there are oil emulsified coolants used in lathes and milling machines on a daily basis to keep cutting tools cool and provide lubrication. I'll still stick to using LA's awesome cleaner for cleaning my upholstery in my car, but I won't knock the OP for his use. The proof is in the video.

Good work, if i was doing it i would be tempted to use diesel rather than a degreaser and removing the oil pan to clean the oil pick wont take too long. Anyway what you did definatley improved the car.

[@rockypatron8805]

No BS , i have a 2013 Silverado and my wife ran it for over 20 thousand miles without getting the oil changed ( She told me she would take it to the mechanic every 3000 miles) . Well the Engine started knocking really bad and when I finally got back in town to check the oil the engine was bone dry. The check engine light and a bunch of traction control sensor lights on the dash were lit up and my cars check engine light would blink often and the truck would drive and sound like it was on its last leg. I used a 3 quarts oil and one 32oz bottle of awesome to start the first flush. 2nd and 3rd were one quart oil on 32oz awesome. The fourth flush I doubled up on both oil and awesome from the previous flush and when I finally filled the engine up with 5 quarts like and a bottle of marvel, all the censors stopped popping up and the check engine light stopped blinking. The knocking went away as well but the check engine light stayed on. It runs absolutely wonderful now and I've out about 20,000 more miles since then. And just to think, I was on the verge of getting a completely new engine just before I saw this video and attempted this as hail Mary attempt to save my engine. Even when I ran a diagnostic on it before the flush, the scanner said engine was misfiring and that I had a bad cylinder. After the flush the scanner says it's just a sensor now. WOW!!

[@JoseDiaz-rd9fh]

Nice thanks for sharing. Personal testimonials carry far more weight than anything else these days in my opinion. Obviously this probably can't be used on the regular but if your engine oil is really dirty shortly after changing it on a high mileage engine this trick would probably extend it's life

Use Justice Brothers Metal Conditioner. Best stuff for your engine I use it in my Subaru Outback H6 every oil change and I have over 300,000 miles

[@amerlin388]

I wonder if Mean Green Degreaser would work similarly or better. I was thinking you could use the pump sprayer into the drain hole as a compromise against dropping the pan. Also, I modified a worn out home carpet cleaner and some vinyl tubing to create a fluid sucker, run it in the drain whole. Surprised how much more dirty oil I get out. Good save for an engine almost shot. For me, I think for it's worth a few dollars more to use an engine flush product designed specifically for that purpose.

[@flhusa1]

the oil that sludged up back in the day was PENZOIL WITH Z7 ADDITIVE. a mechanic showed me a head just like the one in the video. the miracle additive Z7 WAS PARAFIN WAX THAT COATED EVERYTHING IN THE ENGINE.

[@billsullivan6094]

While doing the cleaning, what if you had a remote oil filter setup , say a reusable screen style filter,to filter the chunks out. I would think you could use the same totally awesome a lot longer.

[@crazysexycool180]

[@1950harleycharley]

REminds of a true story....lady came from China, moved to Tucson, AZ...bought a brand new Lexus....Took it to the shop with 53,000 miles on it...was running terrible....mechanic checked the oil...nothing on the stick...He asked her when she changed the oil last...she looked stupidly at him and said...."This is a Japanese car...they don't need service! "That car went for 53,000 miles with no oil change and none added!!! That is nothing short of miraculous...true story too!

SuperTech (Walmart) put a gun to the head of the Shell bosses and got the best additives otherwise they will switch to Mobil who offered a lower price but since Shell performs so well and is Made in PA and TX with union labor, Royal Dutch Shell won the contract.

Lol all these people talking about different brands of oil and how crappy they are lol, I work in an oil refinery plant were we make/produce oil for cars and 90% of the bottles on wally worlds shelve's are from the same tank of oil used for every brand, the only oil we change tanks on is valvoline. The rest are different bottles & label's but are the same oil.

Tyler Johnson Base oils are commodities. Additives differentiate the brands. Most independent brands are private labeled major brands.

[@SwapPartLLC]

Yeah, and it's the same thing with a lot of food. I worked in a candy packaging factory years ago and we'd run some big name brand, then we'd switch packaging and run some generic with the exact same candy.

[@DrLove911]

Just because you work in an oil refinary don't mean you know who bottles it or what additives are in it. You're a lier.

[@charlescummings2205]

I've done this before and it does work. I would just say after the flushes also drop the oil pan and change the screen.

[@amerlin388]

Thoughts... Wonder whether to use the normal oil weight for this process? Heavier? Thinner? Is the drained oil safe OK for the oil recycler? Wonder whether to use the Awesome all-purpose cleaner shown or one of the degreaser products they now have. I'd consider putting Awesome in a garden sprayer and hosing out the drain pan. I converted an old carpet shampooer with no agitation into a wet sucker (by vinyl tubing). I use this to suck extra oil from the drain pan during an oil change. Probably would be useful to clean out the sludge under the valve cover.

[@lv2xlr8NOW]

[@briand.1694]

Try SeaFoam as that is what it is designed to do. I could never put a water-based cleaner of any kind into the crankcase of an engine of a car I rely on to get to and from work every day.

[@hanskinslo326]

WD-40 isn't water based. But I wouldn't use it either!

[@ideedalandlord]

Brian D. Thanks for your reply That is what WD-40 is design to do and yes it is an oil-based and I also agree with using SeaFoam, Diesel, Automatic Transmission Fluid and whatever else works I’m helping by I’m adding an old school mechanical solutions used by pros before SeaFoam was available. My way has been used but pros to Revive water flooded engines and this why I’m Relating to this that is exactly what mostly oil looks like rough oil paste and then after time that oil paste turns to hard rocks in flood engines

[@jimmyhanes9811]

WD=40 has grit in it. Good stuff but do not use on any bearings/ Will cause more wear and can lock them up. ATF4 works best.

[@nicholaslynch7651]

To the guy who said the grit in wd 40 will hurt an engine. Wtf are u talking abt wd 40 is basically 0w-05 and no wd 40 is not a good solvent. I recomend diesel flushes over a 3 month period like 6 of them. This degreaser shyt does wprk tho and will boost hp if u just bought a beater that wasnt taken care of

[@Mike.D.843]

Nissan VG engine... I had a 2001 Xterra that I bought used with 54k on it, same VG33 engine, when I had to do my valve cover gaskets I found it was sludged up pretty bad. Nowhere near as bad as this one, but bad enough. Previous owners did not keep up with maintenance, which is not what I wanted to find out. I always run Mobil One and change at no more than a 5k interval, honestly I think that the only reason that my engine didn't look like this one is that the Mobil One I had been using had been slowly cleaning the sludge out of it. That engine ran good, but always had a bad lifter tick when cold no doubt caused by oil starvation because of the sludge... Change your oil folks. Your engine will thank you by lasting a lot longer!!!

I live in LA and never saw this stuff before until I moved out here from FL 10 years ago. And you're right $1 for a bottle - REALLY, REALLY good stuff and best stain remover I've ever used. For anyone who hasn't tried it before- you are missing out!!!! Give it a try and let us know what you think about your now perfectly white socks, Tshirts. ......and engines! NOTE : Don't recommend using it for dental care or for cleaning your liver after a long night out w friends drinking .

Did you replace the oil filter for each flush? I have used Transmission Fluid to flush out a sludge filled engine before, worked well because it is a lubricant with a much higher detergent level.

[@deepsquat600]

beechwood619 old school...trans fluid used to have now detergent then oils...but not even close to today's old.....engine flush.....or better would be pill used in diesel engines...or synthetic pill have high cleaning abilities

[@buckaroobonsi555]

No ATF does not have detergents in it! Why would it need them no combustion is going on in the transmission. If a transmission gets up to 165 F the seal harden from oxidation of the fluid. You can ask the companies that make ATF if it has any detergents in them or if it is higher detergent than motor oil. I already know the answer. ATF has almost no additives in it compared to motor oil because it does not need them. You could also look at Used Oil Analysis or Virgin Oil Analysis. ATF will turn black in a hurry in an engine becasue it is not designed to operate at those temperatures and it has almost no antioxidant properties, dispersants, Anti-Wear etc.....The myth you are repeating was based on Whale Oil that was used before it was banned in the USA. Orignaly Whale oil was used to automatic transmissions and it worked much better than it's replacement. Today that is not true. Whale oil was full of natural ester based oil very similar to modern ester based synthetic base stocks. Ester's are very polar and clean polar by products very well. Regular Group I-III base oils dino oil is not polar at all. PAO synthetics are not polar either but Ester base stocks are. That is both good and bad. They clean very well but they also atractic water vapor as well because water is polar and like attracts like. Their is not a single OEM car manufacture that uses ester base stock for their ATF.

Might consider Pine-sol (or similar). I have a heated parts cleaner that I use it in and it works great.

[@mclark4978]

The type of oil plays a part in it. I recommend you change your oil as directed but the last vehicle i own i never changed the oil on time. Basically neglected it. Got 350,000 miles out of it and never saw buildup this bad.

[@scottex8370]

Walmart oil is crap. When I bought my Dodge truck it had 45,000 miles on it, I immediately changed the oil to Mobil 1 full synthetic, when I hit 75,000 miles I changed to Mobil 1 full synthetic high mileage and I change my oil every 15,000 miles, I now have 130,000 miles and recently had to replace the valve cover gaskets, the valvetrain was immaculate, it looks like an engine with only 30,000 miles.

[@freddyflintstoned913]

I have 5 cars to maintain and I use Walmarts filters and oil. Now Walmart has a synthetic 0-20 five quart jug for under 16 bucks. Yep I trust Walmart. They do not want lawsuits about oil failure.

[@leonrichard7105]

Hi AP. I liked this video. I'd appreciate your input on a minor issue I'm having...In Dec. 2015, I bought a 2010 Audi TTS with a mere 48000 kms of mileage. It now just turned over 76000kms I've used the best quality synthetic oils and filters (Amsoil & Mann). The car has run awesome with plenty of power and no odd sounds, smells or exhaust fumes. I'm even getting better than average gas mileage. However, when you open the oil cap, there is some "mocha latte colored goo" on the bottom of the cap and around the hole where you fill the engine with oil. The 2.0 liter FSI engine is known to burn a bit of oil (1 L) between the 16000km oil change intervals. The stealership wants to do an "engine flush" to clean out the inside of the engine. I'm reluctant because I've read of people having major issues after having that done. While I hate seeing that light brownish goo, where the car is running so well, I don't want to push my luck. It seems like whenever I bring my cars to them even for something minor, I end up with a $500+ bill. I've also noticed that the less they touch my cars, the less seems to go wrong with them. (The next closest VW/Audi dealership is a 2.5hrs drive.) What do you think I should do?

[@crazysexycool180]

take a picture of oil and inbox me, It could be caused from several different things.

[@grandtheftauto1233]

What ever happened with your audi? What you described is often from short drive cycles and not a concern

[@blackwaterdogs4256]

@@grandtheftauto1233 Agreed. Those short trips are usually the cause of this condition (known in the BMW enthusiast community as "BMW mayo"). The oil filler cap is normally the highest point on the engine, and the first to cool down, causing condensation to collect there. Not really a BFD, but if you do a lot of short trips, maybe you should change the oil a little more frequently. The car would also benefit from taking it out on the highway, and driving it at higher revs (like ~ 4000 to 5000 RPMs for a few miles. Once or twice a week would be fine. This is known as "The Italian tune-up" 🙂

[@blackwaterdogs4256]

Addendum to my previous post: A time-honored Old Mechanic`s Trick is to add a quart of ATF (Auto Trans Fluid) to the oil just before performing an oil change, then drive the car normally for a few miles, and drain the old oil while still warm. This will remove a LOT of the crud that has built up inside the engine, as well as freeing up sticky lifters, etc. Anyone who has ever used ATF to clean their greasy hands after a job will understand the effectiveness of this.

[@marcwoodward8056]

Watching/listening to video at work. The engine was knocking loud as hell before the flush. I was looking away when he started it after the flush and only heard it. I had to stop what I was doing & rewind the video a bit because I couldn't believe it was the same car! That engine is running smooth and quiet and all the lifter knock is gone...That is amazing! I don't see a reason the engine should still continue to operate until the owner runs it into the ground. All he did was delay it's execution at the hands of an irresponsible owner!!

Good video & info! Thanks..

I've always changed my oil with full synthetic every 5,000 miles. Before synthetic, every 3,000

[@jamescox6032]

For all of the nay sayers, consider this. . . magnesium sulfonates (Epsom Salt) are added to detergent motor oils. Soaps are made to allow a molecule of water to combine with a molecule of fat or oil. Here a few months later, I'd like to hear an update on the car. I'd bet that it is still running just fine considering the amount of miles on the vehicle. I have tried many of the common cleaning solutions, ATF, MMO, Diesel, Kerosene, etc. without any bad affects. This is a new and interesting twist. In the old days, airplanes had oil diluters that pumped fuel into the engine oil for cold weather starting. You'd be surprised how fluid flow and its cooling effect has much to do with lubrication. Thanks.

[@buckaroobonsi555]

No you do not add solids to an oil all the additives have to be in colloidal form. You can not get Epson Salt to dissolve in oil. Organo-metalic additives are nothing like what 99% of the population think they are. No Saponification is going on in engine oil. You guys need to go to Bob is the oil guy and read all the articles written by Molacue(sp) Rocket Scientist, Tribologist, College Prof. Racer and all around oil geek.

[@freddyflintstoned913]

A colloidal solution has solids held in suspension by collisions of molecules.

[@FrankGutowski-ls8jt]

James Cox Magnesium sulfate, not sulfonate.

[@brianmilligan1787]

Yes you have to drop the sump and change oil strainer lifter you have to drop the sump and change oil lifter or at least clean the thing

[@dnawrapsatl]

My 07 scion is about to hit 200k! Bought it used, btw the 07 was the worst model for engine problems, bought it at 127k it burns about a quart of oil every 1000 miles is the only downfall, but for a used car I'm surprised to see it still running! Check your oil every few hundred miles and ur good , never be lazy and not check!

[@blackericdenice]

Or you could just change your oil when the manual say so. That oil brand only sludge up because people would not change it. Basic oil can go 7,500 miles in newer engines because they don't create as much blow by. How do you know if you have a newer engine? Read your manual.

[@fordinlinestraight]

blackericdenice thumbs up

[@soultraveler5834]

blackericdenice did you read the title? Did you even watch the video? Changing oil does not clean a motor this video is about fixing a problem not preventive maintenance.

[@blackericdenice]

Did u watched the video? He said using a curtain oil could cause that sludge. That is not true.

[@paulmicola119]

haha i said the same.once you have caused this type of engine damage.there is no going back and there is not a nything that you can by that will fix this.except buy a new car or fix this pice of crap.

[@boondock6055]

No one should ever run oil on 7500 miles

[@SAUCEGOD985]

Steering wheel tells me it's a chicks car... the average female don't pop her hood till it's smoking on side the road

[@jbiswas5762]

😂

[@NativeAmericanSwag]

I'm a woman and I always change my oil in all of my cars, I've always believed it's the more lazy women who just don't want to learn sadly........

[@MidnightPolaris800]

If it moves drive it is their motto

[@TimGn]

Awesome, thank you!

[@mdcool3487]

One thing you can say he got it running that's for sure and that is the point to get the car going again.

[@TuningCustomUpgradeCarParts]

thank nice job

[@anthonydefr]

I don't know if i would do this but wow. Nice

[@trewatkins530]

Totally awesome seriously I use this stuff all the time for cleaning and.stuff but I am soon to use it in this method on my BMW 745li the valvetronic levels are off when i starts up then after a Good while the the engine heats up the oil and it evens out think the previous owner out cheap oil in it to top it off
