Napa Synthetic is still on sale for $2.99/qt, which is the price of PYB dino, and maybe a full syn might be better to use for a cleaning short OCI? Napa also has a couple engine flush things, both their own house brand Mac's, and Liqui-Moly.
This was my thought. NAPA syn FTW!
Also, after being on here for so long, thought I'd mention that a FRAM Ultra will probably fix all issues with it. FRAM Ultras will not only magically remove that sludge but they'll also keep your tire pressure constant and stop coolant from leaking.
But seriously, I'd run the NAPA or M1 with rebate synthetic. Same price as Yellow Bottle right now, probably better oils. Or we could debate if they're better...
Yeah, I figured since I'll be doing short OCI's I'd go for something that's on sale or has a rebate. In this case I went for the 2 for 1. Havoline 10w30 is on sale at walmart online for $10.44 and it also has a $5 rebate till 8/31. So I got 5 qts for $5.44 (not including tax).
I'd pick up some
Rislone there too, maybe a couple of bottles. I'd add one the last 500 miles of an OCI and the next one perhaps half way through and definitely monitor the oil...
