i want a clean my cb7, but need names of the product...

Someone has done?

 

What do you want to flush?

 

There are intelligent people on this forum who just got their brain cells assaulted trying to read your question.

 

lmoa

The assault just keeps getting worse and worse every day!.....

I'm guessing English isn't their primary language for dialogue......





Seems as though engine bay cleaning is a hot topic over the past few days. I'm going to assume that is what he is talking about.

If that is the case; Simple green, hot water, some scrubbing then a rinse will work.

If you are talking about an engine oil flush....buy a can of seafoam and follow the instructions for crankcase cleaning...heads up, if I remember correctly an oil change will be required immediately after.

 

sorry for my English, it's certainly not my first language, but the question is clear, I just need to know whether someone has flushed inside the engine, and if he did know me like that product, and I know seafoam thanks for all gentlemen.

 

Seafoam!

 

Seafoam works wonders.. I have done this on my motor.. My question is, how often should this be done, GhostAccord?

 

Sea Foam.

Or if you cannot find it locally, ATF fluid works pretty decent as well.

 

Automatic Transmission Fluid to clean engine???????
thats a new one

 

really never heard that..

 

BG products

 

Yeop. Old mechanics trick.

At your next oil change, warm the engine up to operating temperature. Turn off the engine, drain the oil(leave the old filter on), refill with ATF, start engine and let it idle for ~10mins. DO NOT PUT ANY LOAD ON THE ENGINE!
You can rev it to a higher idle, do not drive around or place it in gear. Just let the combination of heat and ATFs detergents work. Turn off engine, drain ATF. More than likely it will come out gloppy and black, and if it looks like metal flake do not worry. Over the years/miles any sludge that builds up will also entrap wear particles. With ATF it will break down the sludge and release those particles. If there was still a lot of garbage coming out of the pan, you can add a quart to help push out anything else that may be at the bottom of the pan. Reinstall drain plug, remove old filter, install new, refill with oil and go for a spin.

If there was a lot of crud and sludge, it may be well worth it to refill with ATF and do another flush.

 

Seafoam doesn't do ****. The only tried and true flush is http://www.auto-rx.com/

 

How do you figure seafoam doesn't do ****?

 

I might have try this when I'm due for an oil change. Wouldn't a little bit of ATF be left behind and would it harm the engine in any way?

 

Ok, And what do you recommend? (ATF Fluid)

 

Did you follow the directions? Sea Foam works great. Now if you expect it to remove hardened carbon deposits that are transitioning from coal to diamond, then no. It will not remove that. You will have to get in there and physically remove that kind of carbon fouling. No product will remove that, well no product that will not eat aluminum.

Nope. A little left in will be fine.

F, Dexron/Mercon, ATF+4, etc. Whichever ATF is on sale. It does not need to be a specific type. And since it will only be used for ~10mins to clean crud it does not need to be specific. You just need the generic detergent properties of ATF to clean the varnish, grime, goo and buildup from your engine.

 

I have at my disposal only Berryman products at AutoZone, there are some that are similar to seafoam?, I would also like to know if there is any product Berryman I serve as the seafoam for vacuum hoses, engine flush, and the gas tank.

Thank you gentlemen

 

Is there a Walmart or Target near you? I've seen Seafoam even at Walmart and Target.

 

Good flush is a great motor.

 

Depends on how often you drive. On motorcycles and boats it's good to put some in during the cold season and flush when it gets warm enough to use them again. The same applies to cars. If it is going to sit up for a minute, put some Seafoam in, but other than that you really shouldn't have to do it often at all as long as you keep up with your oil changes. If you do that and drive it regularly once a year would even be overkill, but it won't hurt it.

 

I have even found Seafoam at Dollar General. Napa did have them on sale 2 weeks ago for 6.99 a bottle...

 

How much ATF should be added when doing this flush?

 

How many people have done the ATF flush?? Im really curious on it, but ive never heard of this before.

Im doing my oil pan gasket swap soon so I could remove any sludge it may trap at the bottom.

 

You refill it with the normal amount that you would as if it were oil.
