hey Varche,
good to hear from you, about the technique i suggested...
the oil that leaves the lifters goes straight back to the sump, not any where else, and this oil goes thru the filter before going to the rest of the engine...plus the diesel oil literally breaks down all the shit to be found in an engine...except metal cuttings,,,
oil is taken directly from the sump, to the oil pump, then the filter...(lets hope it has not been clogged before, oil flows in by pass mode of the filter and sent shit around the entire engine) this is why oil filters should be cut open after every oil change
the only place to be really worried is if any shit goes to the oil sprayers (if applicable) that spray oil to cool the under side of the pistons...they can be clogged...came across a 200sx with a sr20 turbo engine where i could not even free up these oil sprayers when i rebuilt the motor...
not a real problem for a normally used engine, but one that is abused..needs this extra cooling...
the time period i suggested for the oil change is from experience working on / rebuilding engines / having to wash up parts and stuff...diesel oil works just as well as automatic transmission fluid to clean up parts..(ever seen how clean inside an automatic transmission is)..but you cannot use ATF in an engine....

SeedyV6...the 10W40 diesel oil should be ok....its how many heating and cooling cycles in between the oil changes...and ensure that you change your oil filter...even if you dont change your oil....sounds bad but this has been a common practice in Trinidad...and is even taught by the older mechanics...LOL
it is your call...your car...this is what i do with my car and its fine..no metal found in the filters at oil changes (powerful magnet sweeps the entire element to find nothing)..but do not use a hacksaw to cut it open...i started off using a can opener...MAKE SURE AND USE GLOVES....BLOOD SEEN>>>>NOT GOOD!
let me know what you all think
regards
