The question, “should you flush your engine” recently came up after I inspected the salvage yard engine I just bought. Under the valve cover there was some sludge build up that I was concerned about. In this video I talk about my views on flushing engines and what to do if you have an engine similar to this one.

I hope you find the information helpful.

Thanks for watching!
