Re: Internal engine cleanup

Thank you everyone for the input, the reason for cleaning it is pretty nasty under the valve cover, not blocking drain holes, but full of old gunk from sitting. I will likely pull valve covers soon and give it a good clean up under there and may do the diesel or trans fluid trick, just trying give the motor some more life with out a full rebuild. it fires up and runs great. I dont drive the truck much its used mostly around the house to move lift with the tow boom. I want it to be reliable enough for parades etc, but worry about the gunk causing an oil flow problem and eventually engine failure. Again thanks for all the input.
