I will take out the flush and let people decide what kind of oil to use and what additives to put in.
Sittin' here slightly amused... A Discovery drivin' Gentleman from Oklahoma tries to help us out with info and the thread gets turned into an oil, coolant, additives debate based on some science, some expereince but mostly opinion.

I for one thank you for at least trying to organize info for the rest of us to reference. You're OK.

now back to my cage....

I also thank the Gentleman from Oklahoma for his efforts. Let's commend him not tear apart his input.

I have avoided doing the Seafoam Injection Cleaning due to some write-ups I have seen regarding problems afterwards. I do use it or the Lucas Fuel Additive in the Gas Tank, don't know how much good that really does, but it makes me feel like I did something good to make up for PO abuse.

Mine has run smoother and quieter after using Valvoline Synthetic Blend MaxLife.

Keep up the good work MR OKDISCOGUY. Anybody who lives in Oklahoma should be commended. Keep the good tips flowing.

Thanks for the kind words guys. I was sending people to the tech section thinking the list was there. I know way back when the list confused D1 drivers, so I thought it should be tailored for us.

The key to seafoam is doing it slowly. If it is done correctly, it is great. I have used it on everything I have (except the new GLK) with great results.

But yeah, this list has been on here for years and nobody ever told Mike how he was wrong..... Funny...

I had been thinking of moving and changing the "list" but OKDG beat me to it, and I thank him for saving me the work. lol

I feel this is how we should treat anyone from Oklahoma trying to be helpful.
