<VV> Sleeping Lakewood

[J R Read_HML]

I think he needs to clean out as much sludge as possible MANUALLY from every 
reachable orifice.  My concern is that the ATF ONLY route is going to 
dislodge a piece of crud that will block an oil galley or two and the engine 
will suddenly become history.

Attachments (if any) are scanned with anti-virus software.

Tony, rather than flushing the engine (and circulating all the  crud that's
currently sleeping in bottom of the pan)  I think you  would be time, money,
and engine life ahead if you just pulled the pan and  scraped out the 75% 
that's
in the pan.  You know the pan gasket is shot  anyway.  After you put the
clean pan back on, if you want to  flush then to try and clean out the other
parts, I guess that wouldn't hurt  anything.  I'd just cut to the chase, 
drop the
pan now, and get it over  with... My 5¢  Your smilage may vary...

Question: If you kiss a sleeping Lakewood, what do you  get???
