Re: [MBZ] remove sludge from w123 diesel

Black oil is to be expected. It's the nature of a diesel. Perhaps Mobil 1 is not as high quality of an oil as it once was. If you do use a flush product, I would probably pull the lower pan after draining the oil to make darn sure there is no chunks of sludge that will plug the oil screen.

Where exactly is this gummy oil? On top of the head under the cam cover? If so, you should be able to rinse it out of there. Plug the oil drain holes to keep it from washing down into the oil pan, and then spray it out with Varsol. Will make a bit of a mess, but clean the engine off after you

Your oil is going to go black immediately after an oil change, that’s the nature of these diesels. Not sure about the valve buildup. Might be worth trying some product for awhile and see if that helps. --FT Sent from iFōn > On Feb 17, 2024, at 1:26 PM, Dan Elliott via Mercedes > wrote: >
