bad bad and bad

some of those stuff they use wore out the gasket

you see all the bad stuff coming out, and some of it is your good ole gasket.


the thing is, if you can pour in something and clean the motor, there's no need for engine rebuild, hottank, etc.

honda specifically states that "we do not recommend any oil additives whatsoever"

besides...if you take care of your engine (oil filter\oil change\air filter\basic tune up stuff) regularly....you shouldnt need any type of flush
