In a message dated 98-05-04 16:26:26 EDT, you write:

<< ,< I would drain about a quart out, he would put in a quart of
 kerosene, and run it for a few minutes.>
 
 wouldn't that thin out the oil enough to seriously lower the oil
 pressure?
 I guess if you only run it for a few minutes it wouldn't matter, but
 still.

It works great,tho I would not try it on a motor that has not had good
maintance its whole life.You will dislodge chunks of built-up sludge
and plug the oil pick-up and passages. The same thing is sold
in autoparts stores. It's called "Motor Flush". It is in a quart can.
Pick one up at the store and shake it sometime.
