          If you really want clean oil I would recommend doing an oil change like every 500 miles with some good amsoil till it comes out clean, probably going to take 3-5 changes.

              I did something similar to that in my wagon but used the amsoil stuff. Not so sure I wanna do 5 oil changes though it would probably be worth my while.

                SO hostile I hope you own a chainsaw, All I was implying is they are all similar products. Some people use them one way some use them another. Personally I've only run it through the fuel system. Engine cleaner is a poor man's rebuild, why fix it if it ain't broke?

                      or that oil flushing stuff by amsoil? I forget what its called off the top my head but I remember I ran it on my last car and I noticed a bit of a increase on my daily MPGs.
                      Are you trying to fix a problem? I wouldn't waste my time with that stuff, like Austin said that stuff is really harsh on the valve stem seals.

                        Yeah, think gonna skip it. I was figuring it might help the engine run a little cooler getting whatever is in there out before my oil change but doesn't seem to worth it.

                          Your cooling system needs work, or just needs to be bled.

                              What's up with your cooling system?

                                M42. They are a pain to bleed.
