Hi,
I've read pro and con about using kerosene to desludge oil pans and oil pickup screens. If I were to do it, I would drain the oil, remove filter, pour just 2 quarts of kerosene into the oil filling hole, and let the kerosene cover the oil pickup for a few hours to dissolve any sludge. Then I would drain, inspect, add 4 qts oil, run for a few minutes, drain, then add fresh oil.
But how long do I need to let the kerosene soak the pickup? 3 hours?
2 days ?Thanks
