- This isn’t something you should do with every oil change. As discussed earlier, it’s only necessary when there’s a buildup of sludge and debris. For many cars, it shouldn’t be needed at all as long as the oil is changed regularly.
- Every bit of flushing oil needs to be removed after the flush is complete. If any flushing oil mixes with the new engine oil, it can interfere with the oil’s performance.
- Used flushing oil contains pollutants and must be discharged separately to protect the environment. A professional mechanic will know how to dispose of all waste products safely and responsibly.
- Make sure to follow the manufacturer’s recommendations when performing an engine flush. Select a product that is recommended for your engine type, or talk to your mechanic.
