Default Oil in the muffler...

I had a freak accident where a shitload of oil got into the muffler. Now when I drive the ******' thing smokes, because it's burning the oil out. However, it's been doing this for about a week, and it's getting annoying. Any suggestions on how to clean out the thing, other than "burn it out"?

Thanks...

a oil flush or injector flush might do it.

Hey, I just took out my D15 which burned shitloads of oil and covered my exhaust pipe (and thus presumably my entire Thermal catback exhaust) with this black soot. I installed my B16 and now am wondering if there's a way to clean that **** out?

I guess it'll self-cleanse?
