Default Engine flush?
I was thinking of using Amsoil engine flush in my Land Rover w/44k miles. Wondering what's the thought on this or a similar product?

Thanks

Do what you want on the Land Rover, but do not use engine flush on the LSX.

I assume you are talking about the engine crankcase flush and not the cooling system?

Yes I was talking about the crankcase. I do change my oil very often. I'll save my money. Thanks for the input.
