Oh gawd, why the bottle of flush? You know they can do more harm than good right? Better off just changing the oil and filter, run it for 1000kms then change it again.

Flush all the crap out of it that has probably been in there, I know there's risks with making more leaks but they can be fixed.
It's currently got the common rear main seal leak, the thicker oil didn't help slowing it down, oh well.
Check out my thread for Ye picks of the rockers, years of crap on them!
I'm gonna look around one day for a complete L67 conversion then work the crap out of it for a few years until I get my full license.

Eeep yeahhhhh that damn rear seal. I've got an oil leak back there atm but I think it looks more like the inlet manifold gasket (least I hope thats all it is. Only developed a leak after the engine mounts were done so I'm thinking moving the engine upset something.

I had the 20w 50 in the old eco.
Put the cooler thermostat amd manifold spacer in. Got a tune by Nigel, he said use 0w 40. Its so much quieter.. Im confused but happy.

How'd you manage that???

I've used penrite, castrol, shell, I found valvoline isn't bad.
But penrite is the best I've found

I've heard the ls1 pick they're oil, one engine won't like the same oil as another and vice versa

Anyone know how to go about getting a police check clearance done?
I need to get it done for a job application but have never had it before.
