Use mirror to aim it. I have burn up a heap of mirror. Its about talent I guess. You can weld up there w/o a hood. Just close ya lookers. Not tha preferred method but can be done if necessaries.

DR Tim Fung aL, I been watching temps everyday on new iPhoner 6++ and have found that it colder heer than Alaska. We just don't not ain't getting any snows. Don't need footsticks to get around or dogs for pulling.

Our animals are mostly in the zoo and don't not got no ball sacks in the front. It's in the back where it should be. The buzzards have moved off the metal tower. I guess it too cold for thay feets. Dunno. i"ULL ax one of em.
The trees are all naked now, and the fence people are on the fence again.

Me found the fabricator next door, a concrete man, burglar alarm man, 2 experienced welders....Told em who probably stole thay deer stand. Jerkwater big on stealing and no sheriff. Me, tha plant boss go to lunch everyday. I know where to get pintos, black eyes, corn bread everyday. He hooked. hehehe

Thanks Drd...I'm gonna send a box full of mudflap covers and a couple red alert kits. I see ya still using C-Clenz 5000, it's good machine that one. We had to get tha rectal pump and relay replaced on ours. A nozema jar got hung in the pump and burn't relay out.

Yeppers, the 5000 has served us well however it just wont interface with the newer operating systems we have installed on our procedure room machines so we are looking into replacement. Thinking of going with the ProClean 9500 series w/wipers. P.S.-Thanks for the donations.

What makes oil cakes in an engine ? It not breathing properly ? Condensations ? 4.7 Dodge. it noisy, Tensioners, lifters, maybe worse ? Extracted it for replacement. How could you ever get rid of the cakes ? Break it loose and it plugs everything up. The rest of the vehicle looks well maintained for the year and model.

Primary cause of this condition--- Short hops and EXTENDED OIL CHANGE INTERVALS.

No miles on the oil that's in there so it CAN'T need an oil change-!!

LMFAO-!!

Seen it for years, even way back in the day of the 1973 oil crisis, and the following 5 years, especially after everyone fell for the "synthetic is superior and can be left in longer" spiel.....(sigh)

IF, and only IF the engine wasn't already bucketed, SOMETIMES we could get them reasonably cleaned up with a couple of cycles of filling with straight tranny fluid AND JUST LET IT IDLE for 10 minutes and drain it out. Then put the regular oil in and run it for about a week of normal driving, then run the tranny fluid treatment again for about 5 minutes and change the oil again.

How much is the engine change, compared to simply changing the oil-???

Four oil changes a year for 10 years compared to ONE engine swap.



The more things change, the more they stay the same.

Caked up oil

Bob,
Another item which will cause this, is using a 160 degree [or no]thermostat. This was a fairly common issue back in the days before 190+ degree thermostats. I learned a good, safe way to remove that stuff. Here is how I learned.
I was 24 years old and at my second dealership mechanic job. We had a young lot boy with a 1962 Chevy PU with the old 235 "Stove Bolt" straight six engine. This engine was burning two quarts of oil per DAY! As I was friendly with this young guy, when he asked if I could help, I pitched in. When I removed the valve cover, I found sludge so high that the Chevrolet name which is stamped into the top of the sheet steel valve cover, was reproduced in the sludge! I mean the entire valve cover internal area was full of sludge. I shuddered to think what the bottom end looked like.
The shop "old timer", a 64 year old mechanic, heard me laughing and came over to see what was going on. He warned me not to try scrapping off that sludge, as it would only jam up the oil pump gears and totally destroy the engine. Here is what he told me to do.
We drained the engine oil [tar was closer to the truth] and oil filter. I installed 4 quarts of 10W-30 oil and 1 quart of ATF, with a new oil filter. He explained that ATF is a very high detergent oil. He told the owner that as the engine used oil, to alternate topping up with engine oil, then ATF, then engine oil and so on. After driving the truck for 1 week [about 300 miles] we changed the oil again. It was just as gross as the first change. The oil filter weighed about 5 pounds. This went on for 3,000 miles. The engine's oil usage steadily dropped. After 1,000 miles we were able to extend oil change intervals to 500 miles. At the end of the 3,000 miles, his oil usage had stabilized at 1 quart per 1,000 miles, which he was very pleased with. Curious, I removed the valve cover again. That area of the engine was so clean, it looked like it was still under warranty! At that point, he quit adding ATF to the oil.

A year later, I got married. The "old timer" became my "uncle in law" [my father in law's older brother] He always gave me great advice.

I've been using that trick for 37 years now with nothing but great results. Recently, a good customer's recently purchased 2001 Lexus RX300 used 4 quarts of oil on a 600 mile trip [his first trip] Knowing that certain Toyota engines are prone to sludging due to extended oil change intervals recommended by Toyota, I suggested we use the ATF. We did another oil & filter change 1,000 miles after the first treatment. After that, his oil usage had dropped to the point where he did not have to add oil between 5,000 mile oil [synthetic] changes.

Old straight six , Easy oil pan drop , Just Clean everything off on top end of head , blow out the drain holes. Oil drains down much quicker and not as much pent up on top and going down the valve guides anymore!
If it blows up , it was it's time to go!

[Dr.Jake]

That sludge is oil too Greasys. Oil is made out of sludge. It's really oil candy. Ya cook something long enough it turns to candy.

Synthetic oil isn't made out of sludge. It won't not make candy. It's made out of syrup from the baboa tree and knatbutter extract. The knat is why it so slick.

Finally fig out the Dakota deal. It runs so good, me drive around everywhere til they take it. It had some basic problems, and me too ignorant to fig it out quit like.

[DrD907]

Clogged arteries is the number one killer of American cars. We need to raise awareness and promote healthy living and basic mechanical hygiene. It's up this us. ATF and other statins can only lower bad cholerstrol tar cake levels but don't raise good levels. Dr Jakes work with knat butter is certainly promising.

[Dr.Jake]

Chrsylers Are Mental Ill!

Knat won't not fix that rat there....Sorry. Greasy. You know I had problem wid Dakota, yes. You could unplug the coolant sensor ona million cars and would see an extreme artic temp reading on ya scanner. It might run a bit rich, eh. BUT a Chrsylers will freak the hell out on ya....yerp. The joker will show some middle of the road temp, make the temp gauge go full hotty, and run totally mentally ill. nOTHING you do will change it until you unplug the battery temp sensor or just plug the coolant temp sensor back in. If you ground the crk sensor, oh hell no, it will run it's lip out and won't not talk to you. Completely un-stupid behavior. Chrsylers are crazy, they overreact to stimulus. One Chrsyler will freak out if ya unplug something, the next will freak out if you don't unplug something. (cam--sensay) Chrsyler can hemmoridge from one spot AND blood will drip far from the problem...Causes doctors to do the wrong thing. The vehicles are freaks. They are racists, mental ill, skitso and un-stupid monsters. Be careful.

ps...Doc D is reporting from Itlay. He has left the top of the ball area. He missing. Went to the Lamborgini factory to pick out the right cow for his seats and mudflaps. Every Christmas they gotta fly from the coup and go far. She buys parts with slider money and gets a heap of rocket bus miles. Smart eh, lets go. He still thinks about special napkins alott. Baby oil too. Hope he finds a gravy biscuit over thar... ah ite, good bye.

You'll never get the bits-n-pieces blown out through the passages-!!

You have to dissolve the crud, let the filter catch what is can and drain it out thoroughly. Dissolving the crud also allows the crud lining the passages to be cleared too.

What ever happened to the old Amsoil Toilet paper roll based oil filtration systems they came up with decades ago? Something like that attached with adapter where the tiny oil filter normally resides would be able to safely trap a lot more sludge than just a teaspoon capacity the OE filter can handle before it starts bypassing unfiltered sludge particles. I figure cut a couple 3/4" holes in the passenger floor pop in grommets, run a couple stainless steel hoses to a insulated case about the size of a lunch box . Use it for 3000 miles , change the 3 rolls of Charmin and use the crud impregnated rolls as Yule Logs .

[Dr.Jake]

How much longer before the oil filter goes away? My lawn mower has one bigger than a 5.3L ! The widdle ones do fill up w/cruddles and knatbutter/rectal.

If ya google heater core f150, how come ya git DrDees alien head picture.? hehehehe Google images.
