Hello po mga boss,
I just have my car serviced at prens to replace the valve cover gasket, ito ang loob ng makina,maitim siya compared sa mga commercial ng tv hehe, sabi ng mekaniko kailangan daw i flushing para matangal ito. sinubukan namin tangalin at lumabas naman yung kintab ng metal parts. ang tanong ko lang ay:
1. how effective is flushing the engine to remove the black oil that covers the metal parts?
2. if flushing is the best way,what brand, how much liters of oil is needed for the process?
3. pwede ba ito maging effect ng oil na gamit ko? my oil is Apex semi synthetic / SAE 15w/50 (fortified with pertua oil additive). do i need to switch to imported oil?
naka 22K km na po ang kotse since last oil change, ride is civic 99. hope to hear some inputs sa inyo. TIA

22k since your last oil change? masyado na atang matagal yan. at the most 10k. Those black oil coating are the ones that protect your engine during start-up. peor nun sinabi mong 22k eh baka sludge na yan mga black patches sa engine components mo....hehehe.

thank you sir. meron bang equivalent ito para sa gas engine? gaano katagal i flush? i.e. 10mins engine at idle? then drain? thanks.
yup 22K km na. kaya due na ako for an oil change,yung apex oil na gamit ko originally red in color kaya palaging napapagkamalan na madumi na yung oil.thanks

22,000km before oil change? Now that's what I call engine abuse.
Mukhang kelangan nga ng flushing, especially since it's been more than four times the recommended interval. As for the best engine oil, dinig ko ok daw ang Castrol.

eto yung flush pang gas engine, alam ko yan din yung ginamit sa diesel ko.
halo sya sa oil before draining the old oil. then run for 15 mins. then drain
kung matyaga mekaniko mo pa baba mo na din oil pan para linis talaga, in
my case kasi may tagas sa gasket ng oil pan kaya pag ka drain sabay baba naLast edited by impulzz; June 28th, 2007 at 04:48 PM.
