A motor as Fubar'd as the one Simon posted the photo of is destined for the Wreckers. That's not just sludge, it's crystallised sludge.
Doesn't Wikipedia have details on how GM messed the 9-5 engines (PCV setup AND Oil pumps) so that they became disposable engines ?.
Quaker State oil adverts claim that using their Synth will remove 26% of sludge at each oil change. Diesel (fuel) has a strong detergent axction and has been used for decades by old School mechanics as engine flush.. It also has the advantage of being an Oil (albeit a light one) so NO bearing damages occurs when you run the engine with a sump full of diesel.. And.. the stuff leaves no oil destroying solvents behind .
Those old mechs knew what they were doing. It 'used to be' a respected profession.. years ago.
