Tell the owner to drain the oil and replace it with diesel and run it up to temp then drain the fluid like an oil change. Do this 3 times and the engine will be as clean as new. Allot cheaper then having you clean it by hand. I imagine you know that though..
easy way to clean up your engine sludge is just flush out the old oil and pour 2 quartz of diesel fuel and run it for 3 min at idle speed that will clean up the sludge!
? what you couldn't buy a small bottle of STP oil treatment to fix the ole girl right up ???
if when reassembled this motor works and last ... just think how long it would have run if taken care of correctly ! how many hours did this take and how much did you end up charging the fool?
@pressrolls Truth well spoken !! so are you in a way saying a car owner should change there oil frequently ? Just a fellow You Tuber trying learn from people. Thanks !
Every 3-5k miles. Personally, I stick with the 3k mile rule AND I use synthetic oil. Keeps my V8 running in tip top shape with 115,xxx miles and it's 18 years old.
@AandWProductions Just got and read your reply.. V8 at 18 years old ? Wow !! I am happy for you and it proves any , not just a car, that any machine like a computer , home ac system will always run IF properly taken of. Live Long and Prosper !!
Exactly. People say I4s last longer. It doesn't matter how many cylinders it has. If you take care of it, service it regularly, it'll last a long time. BTW, it's a Camaro...so you know it's been up and down the track a few times..and that's a 115k original miles..no rebuild...yet.
@pressrolls Budget car owners piss me off. One of my friends at school hasn't changed the oil on his Volkswagen Passat in like 20k miles. I ask him what he does when the oil gets low and he says "I just add more". I told him his engine will be done in no time and he'll be out $4k for a new longblock, and he just shrugs it off. What a dumbass.
@iXetsuei Truth well spoken !! ...and the flip side is that people complain stuff like a home air cooling system price but don,t do proper maintenance. I have been to some friend's houses; You be horrified at how dirty some of the home ac systems are... YET they come asking me for money BECAUSE the repairman had to charge a arm and a leg to restore cooling to the house during the hot summer months... and this is for only home ac systems.
we used a professional grade steam cleaner on motors that ran old quakerstate oil in the 70's, a lot of "wax" then took off the oil filter and with a home made hose set up we flushed pre heated oil thru the system..the dropped the oil pan replaced the oil pump and screen.worked well and took less then 5 hours
Next time something like this comes in, try adding 1qt brake fluid to the oil, warm the engine up, let it idle for 10min, then do an oil change. You'd be surprised now much crud the brake fluid dissolves.
Technician, you did an incredibly massive amount of work, and I salute you for going through all that. I bet as soon as it passes emissions, that piece of crap will be on some used car lot traded in on another car. BUYER BEWARE.
@Z28HAHACYA I agree with your assessment ; I could be wrong but I think the owner of that car that the auto technician is working on in this video will be keeping the car for awhile since big money is being spent here OR the car owner is committing financial suicide.
hi whats up, so my 2004 corolla has that oil sludge but it also doesnt turn on and theres no compression on any of the 4 cylinders yes its my wifes car, it turned off on the road wouldnt turn back on, besides the sludge how come it wont turn on? i put a new crankshaft sensor and fuel pump? please let me know what i can do just to make it turn back on..
I'm not blaming the tech, but this is just asking for trouble. What happens when a little piece of sludge gets stuck inside and oil gallery and starves a bearing of oil.
honestly.... its not the hard. disconnect most of the engine, completely take off heads, parts washer, quick hand clean, remove oil pan, hand clean bottom of block reassemble, done. Good mechanic soloin? 6 hours and shes up and running. Around $240 at $40 an hour. Not cheap but not horrible.
i bought a used 350 for my camaro a while ago. i went through the engine before i installed in my car. engine had allot of sludge, i had to clean all of that shit out. not fun. hours of nasty mess. i installed a new timing chain, gaskets, oil pan, heads, lifters, and cam. it runs fairly well but has always had a slight puff at startup. i doubt the previous owner of the engine believed in the virtues of oil changes.
i just took over this jimmy my sis owned and the oil has been changed 2 times since she owned it and i forced her the 2cnd time it has seen 40xxxmiles between those 2 i finally seafoamed it and changed the oil and it was sludged up and the filter was sooo heavy
I would have placed the Cams, Caps, Rocker cover in hot cleaner bath while I was attacking the cylinder head and run a recirculating system of hot cleaner through the engine and oil galleries to flush everything down to the sump (Oil Pan). As Bill said to clean this engine the only way is to properly disassemble clean repair and rebuild. and IMHO this is what should have been done BUT the customer's wishes have to be respected no matter how much we might think they are complete idiots.
@sacheus No old dirty impurity laden oil will accelerate wear due to poor filtration and old oil allowing wear from all the debris picked up. Remember that Oil is there to transfer heat from the bearings and pistons to the cooling system, collects impurities to be cleaned in the oil filter, separates components to reduce wear and friction.
Regular Oil changes and servicing could have prevented this mess,
@markzmen07 Ok well let's do a little test shall we. We'll get 2 identical motors, put synthetic in one and mineral in the other then run them for 500,000km. They will both be the same. This problem is caused by a lack of changes, NOT using mineral oil.
@ke70hibino I once ran my Ford Escort 20,000miles with out changing the oil, used Mobil 1 full synthetic. When I popped the valve cover off, there was NO sludge what-so-ever.
@ke70hibino Firstly, it was a POS ford escort, I could care less what happened to it
Secondly, run a car 200k+miles without changing the oil, and sludge will be the last of your problems. Even the best engines still burn a very little amount of oil, you will be totally out of oil LONG before that 200k mark.
And lastly, the fact that you immediately responded with a insult not only shows your very low intelligence, but it also shows the fact that you're simply looking for a fight.
@M1911A1 If you 'could' care less then that means you care at least a little bit. If you 'couldn't' care less it means you don't give a shit and literally could not care any less about it.
Not really sure what the point of your second paragraph is??? completely unrelated. This car has 135k miles on it and the oil didn't "run out" it fucking turned to sludge. That will happen regardless of synthetic or mineral.
@M1911A1 And lastly (nice starting a sentence with and), your COMMENTS show your very low intelligence. How the fuck was I looking for a fight when you're the fucking idiot that replied to my very first comment which was clearly not serious. So a tip for you, don't reply to comments that aren't directed at you and don't reply with something that is fucking wrong YOU FUCKING IDIOT. Kill yourself please.
This shit happens because people don't change their oil. Not from using mineral oil.
@M1911A1 Nice argument, I take it you've realised you're fucking wrong by now. First post was a joke (at least 13 people got it, you must have been the one that didn't). You tried to argue by saying it's from using mineral. You're fucking wrong, it's from NOT CHANGING OIL. This shit will happen to synthetic as well as mineral. So the only 'point' you have is that you're fucking wrong and yes, I've proved it.
@ke70hibino Bitch please, I deal with idiots like you on a daily basis. Thinking that sludge is ONLY from not changing oil, then trying to defend your self with obscenities instead of having a intelligent augment, puts you in the same category as the stereotypical civic owning ricer that thinks all his stickers give him hp.
Sludge IS from not changing oil, MINERAL OIL! Synthetic may indeed sludge giving enough abuse and time, but absolutely nothing like that dino shit PERIOD!
@M1911A1 "instead of having an intelligent augment"... wtf? Ok you fucking idiot, you just agreed that synthetic sludges as well. I don't know why you think i'm pro mineral oil. I fucking hate the shit and have never ran it in anything I've owned. This shit is not your everyday sludge buildup. This is fucking oil that has turned bad in a big way. This will happen to ANY fucking oil idiot. No need to defend myself when you're just embarrassing yourself.
@ke70hibino "Fuck you you australian piece of shit. I bet daddy rapped your ass when you were younger, why else would you be such a defensive cock sucker? Speaking of cocks, how is that penis enlargement fund coming along? Hows your fat ugly mother? She doing well? Still having fantasies about plowing her in her sleep?"
@M1911A1 How is country even related to this? You failed so bad you're bringing up unrelated shit to try and continue the argument (or augment as you call it). My "daddy" isn't eminem so he doesn't do any rapping. Speaking of cocks? When were we speaking of cocks? Must be on your brain.
You are the ignorant fuck. This shit happens when you don't change your oil, NOT when you use mineral oil. Stupid cunt. 15+ year mechanic knowledge btw ;)
@M1911A1 That I can Believe, If you're running a good oil filter (many who do the 25k oil like to change the filter and add some oil, usually about a quart at 10k) and do mostly highway driving it is defiantly doable.
Its funny no one mentioned anything about the "factory Air Box the Filter itself"...so what do you guys think when the engine is sucking all that air into the combustion chamber...? Anyone know?
@topgearulz Nice...but 1000 miles is extremely early especially with todays oils. If you're using a good synthetic oil you can run 5000-7500 miles with no problems...even more if your car is naturally aspirated.
@Pendemic well it is a blown v8 and i know its a little excessive, but i love doing it and i love my car more so its just an excuse to go out and tinker with it :) btw I'm still on conventional, i want a few more miles before i switch to synthetic
So what you ar saying is $29.95 every 3 months would have been the solution.......Saving money on oil changes is not the place to go. It will cost more everytime you need an engine repair. Just get the oil changed.........
@UBBERTANKER Not True.!! Most people that Can't afford a high priced car Make what they Have last.It's not fair to judge everyone due to one careless person.I did car repair and know what I'm Talking about....Tec
@ke70hibino This sludge problem is not about thethe oil change frequence as much as the type of oil. I know that with this type of car, it requires synthetic oil, not off-the-shelf stuff. that is why there= is sludge build up
I had a Honda CG125 motorcycle for nearly seven years and it done 100 000 kms just before I sold it. It never burnt oil and always started and ran well. The reason for this was because I always insisted on regular oil changes and sometimes changed the oil every 1000 miles. About a month before it touched 100 000 kms, I took the head and cylinder of just to give it a decoke and still could see the honing marks which is proof of vertually no wear. Regular oil changes are so important!
Changing is important but the 3k oil change is about as dead as wings and 8 tracks in cars. I honestly can't think of a manufacturer that has made a vehicle in the last 5 years at least that suggests a 3k change...
@shoprat17 From what I've seen in owners manuals from some cars including my Dakota, the only time they'd specify a 3,000 mile oil change is under severe driving conditions. Such as heavy towing, lots of stop and go city driving, and driving point A to point B daily without letting the engine warm to full operating temps. 6k miles oil changes are good for cars that do a lot of highway driving and such. It's actually easier on the oil than strait city driving or lots of idling.
@joshnc101 Very true, yes, I have seen some that do say 3,000 severe service but I would want to say this hasn't been probably since about the early 2000's, I don't recall seeing anything under 3k on anything made in the last 3-5 years (although many shops manage to still sell the 3k change even on brand new vehicles).
@shoprat17 My Aunt has a brand new Acura, I should go see what her owners manual says for oil changes. She changes her oil every 6k miles using Pennzoil Ultra. I know the additives in that oil can hold up good for twice that many miles but I don't think the warranty will like that.
@joshnc101 I currently work at a honda dealership (honda/acura same manufacturer) and they have a maintenance minder system. the pcm can roughly determine normal/severe service based on things such as ambeint temperature, drive cycle duration, average engine rpm and vehicle speed average. If it determines it's working within normal service limits it will do a A or B code (oil/oil and filter) at 7,500 miles, severe it does it every 5,000.
@drmendonsa You are welcomed to do whatever you want to your car... I take care of my car, use synthetic (blend at the very least) and I never had an issue, even though it's more than 15 yrs old. If you take care of your car, your car will take care of you.
Typical cheap bastard that refuses to pay 40 or 50 bucks for an oil change. That`s cheap insurance against engine failure and replacement. One oil change every three months or thousands of dollars in parts and labor to fix the POS. No common sense whatsoever.
Superb video...most folks don't respect the mechanics who do this for a living 9 hours a day...the form they ( technicians ) have for working on cars as a professional athlete has playing ball...
@netmatrix75 if you like pulling the pan off a few times to clean the pickup screen a few times (almost certain to do) you could, but why pay for motor flush? kerosene, automatic trans fluid (don't matter what kind) or diesel works great, I've seen motor flush products that look and smell like off road diesel...
U are right, they are kerosene based. Most of the stuff i saw being sold does indicate kerosene based. I was just wondering how effective compared to the manual labour of cleaning the heads only does. My mechanic did this before in my very old toyota. But the engine is very high mileage over 5 years and the engine oil is of the cheap variety. Anyway i salute the hard work put on cleaning those gunk. I don't think i every could hence me implying the lazy way!
OMG facinating!!! That people neglect their cars this much! I am female, know how to do an oil and filter change but I get a service every 10,000kms. Unreal!!! :o( poor engine
"I highly doubt seafoam would have helped at all in this situation!"
How about pouring solvent (e.g. dichloromethane) into the head until the engine is full of it, then draining it? There are solvent recovery systems that can get the clean solvent back for reuse and the gunk in a separate bag for disposal.
If the degreaser he's using is solvent based, I'd be cautious of hoovering it up. The exhaust would need to go outside and the hoover would need to be ATEX (explosion proof).
Been doing my own oil changes on my own vehicles and taught by my family as well and that is one of the MORE sludge filled engines i have seen. A good reason why you should change the oil when you are supposed to according to the vehicle or to what they recomend in the owners manual.

sorry .. but i dont understand english very well .. but i think i heard him saying that he suggest to REPLACE THE ENGINE .. OMG .. you only need to clean the engine .. and thats it !! engine will work as new again .. people, but believe everything that mechanics says .. they want your MONEY !!
Great video. I hope you charged the owner a ton of money and I hope he/she learned their lesson from this. Oil changes are too important to just shrug off.
should of just run diesel engine oil through it for a couple of changes, the higher detergent levels in diesel oil would have cleaned most of that out!!
HAHAHA I used to be a service tech at a Kia dealer and Kia voided a couple peoples warranty for not changing there oil and not showing proof that they had it changed either.
should have drained the oil and then used a machine to flush the engine with solvent a couple of times.... it would have worked way better then what your doing.
@aodhanof90 NEVER DO AN ENGINE FLUSH WITH A SOLVENT. We have had cars come into our garage with a burnt oil pump/bottom end bearings from all the hard carbon, that was knocked off with the solvent, getting sucked into the oil pump. THIS method good for cleaning sludge, but the best is a full engine dissassembly. I bet the piston rings are stuck solid into the ring lands/grooves.
wow so apparently this shop doesnt own a parts washer, way to rip the customer off by taking entirely too much time, shops like yours give honest mechanics a basd name wash the parts in the tank and be done with it dont pick at the cams with a needle dick of a screw driver to take your sweet ass time, and holy crap drain the pan put another under it to catch the mineral spirits or diesel you should have used in the first place. Damn youre a tool
There are so many monkies out there that are tight asses,dumb or just plain retarted when it comes to car maintenance, there was once a car at my mechs it was a family car toyota tarago the dumb Dickhead put all his families lifes at risk by wearing the brakes down to the metal of the brake pads, all disks and brakes had to be change, im sure he had a hectic bill at the end and he will keep an eye out next tym!!
Wondering as to why this method was taken and head not removed and all parts pulled apart and acid bathed or other chemical cleaning methods? I assume its from the tight as drivers half not wanting to spend a few more bucks, top job but the looks,
Nice video. Although as a suggestion to "clear any possible sludge left in the pipes etc" would have been to simply fill the car up with new oil after the clean, run it for a few hours (take it for a drive) and then change the oil again. Much better than leaving it for 6 months!!
@irajahwazi It's so true! hahahaha There are so many people out there who have absolutely no idea about how their car works. Because I'm a gearhead personally even my girlfriend has picked up a few things, she changed a GROWN MAN's tire for him because he had no idea how! I was so proud of her.
Tell the owner to drain the oil and replace it with diesel and run it up to temp then drain the fluid like an oil change. Do this 3 times and the engine will be as clean as new. Allot cheaper then having you clean it by hand. I imagine you know that though..

Thinking that sludge is ONLY from not changing oil, then trying to defend your self with obscenities instead of having a intelligent augment, puts you in the same category as the stereotypical civic owning ricer that thinks all his stickers give him hp.
Sludge IS from not changing oil, MINERAL OIL! Synthetic may indeed sludge giving enough abuse and time, but absolutely nothing like that dino shit PERIOD!

@M1911A1 "instead of having an intelligent augment"... wtf? Ok you fucking idiot, you just agreed that synthetic sludges as well. I don't know why you think i'm pro mineral oil. I fucking hate the shit and have never ran it in anything I've owned. This shit is not your everyday sludge buildup. This is fucking oil that has turned bad in a big way. This will happen to ANY fucking oil idiot. No need to defend myself when you're just embarrassing yourself.

@M1911A1 That I can Believe, If you're running a good oil filter (many who do the 25k oil like to change the filter and add some oil, usually about a quart at 10k) and do mostly highway driving it is defiantly doable.

I had a Honda CG125 motorcycle for nearly seven years and it done 100 000 kms just before I sold it. It never burnt oil and always started and ran well. The reason for this was because I always insisted on regular oil changes and sometimes changed the oil every 1000 miles. About a month before it touched 100 000 kms, I took the head and cylinder of just to give it a decoke and still could see the honing marks which is proof of vertually no wear. Regular oil changes are so important!

Changing is important but the 3k oil change is about as dead as wings and 8 tracks in cars. I honestly can't think of a manufacturer that has made a vehicle in the last 5 years at least that suggests a 3k change...
shoprat17 3 weeks ago
@shoprat17 From what I've seen in owners manuals from some cars including my Dakota, the only time they'd specify a 3,000 mile oil change is under severe driving conditions. Such as heavy towing, lots of stop and go city driving, and driving point A to point B daily without letting the engine warm to full operating temps. 6k miles oil changes are good for cars that do a lot of highway driving and such. It's actually easier on the oil than strait city driving or lots of idling.
joshnc101 2 weeks ago
@joshnc101 Very true, yes, I have seen some that do say 3,000 severe service but I would want to say this hasn't been probably since about the early 2000's, I don't recall seeing anything under 3k on anything made in the last 3-5 years (although many shops manage to still sell the 3k change even on brand new vehicles).
shoprat17 1 week ago
@shoprat17 My Aunt has a brand new Acura, I should go see what her owners manual says for oil changes. She changes her oil every 6k miles using Pennzoil Ultra. I know the additives in that oil can hold up good for twice that many miles but I don't think the warranty will like that.
joshnc101 1 week ago
@joshnc101 I currently work at a honda dealership (honda/acura same manufacturer) and they have a maintenance minder system. the pcm can roughly determine normal/severe service based on things such as ambeint temperature, drive cycle duration, average engine rpm and vehicle speed average. If it determines it's working within normal service limits it will do a A or B code (oil/oil and filter) at 7,500 miles, severe it does it every 5,000.

U are right, they are kerosene based. Most of the stuff i saw being sold does indicate kerosene based.

But the engine is very high mileage over 5 years and the engine oil is of the cheap variety. Anyway i salute the hard work put on cleaning those gunk. I don't think i every could hence me implying the lazy way!

"I highly doubt seafoam would have helped at all in this situation!"
How about pouring solvent (e.g. dichloromethane) into the head until the engine is full of it, then draining it? There are solvent recovery systems that can get the clean solvent back for reuse and the gunk in a separate bag for disposal.
If the degreaser he's using is solvent based, I'd be cautious of hoovering it up. The exhaust would need to go outside and the hoover would need to be ATEX (explosion proof).

@aodhanof90 NEVER DO AN ENGINE FLUSH WITH A SOLVENT. We have had cars come into our garage with a burnt oil pump/bottom end bearings from all the hard carbon, that was knocked off with the solvent, getting sucked into the oil pump. THIS method good for cleaning sludge, but the best is a full engine dissassembly. I bet the piston rings are stuck solid into the ring lands/grooves.
