Hi, I have a 302 cleveland motor and the head gasket went and now inside the motor, it looks like a coffee milkshake because the water and oil has emulsified. I have remove the heads and manifold and have given it all a clean, and so far all looks good. What i would like to find out is there anyway that i can clean the rest of the motor out by the way of flushing it somehow without pulling anything else off. Thanks in advance for your help. Regards Jackson ([email protected])

When my head gasket went on my fairlane, the way i flushed all the crap out was by undo-ing the engine oil sump bolt, and pouring a heap of clean oil throught the motor... that should be a good way to get at leat the major crud outa it.


hope that h

Yep use the cheap coles or woolies own brand oil and an elcheapo supercheap filter. Run the car for a day then dump the oil and filter and then put another cheap filter and more cheap oil in the engine and run it for a week. One the oil is staying clean
