Wanted to see if there are some informed opinions on this.
I recently had my car's valve covers off for a couple of jobs. I intentionally did this near the end of an OCI so that draining the oil would take contaminants (residual silicone sealant, dust) with it. I've already driven around 150 miles since the job. Is that long enough to make sure as much of the contamination as possible has made its way into the oil and filter? I'm sure there'll be some traces floating around for the next OCI or two. I just want to make sure I'm getting out as much as possible on this drain.
Anyone have any evidence to suggest one way or another?
