SLUDGE-OUT
Lube-Oil System Cleaning Machine
After the used oil is drained, uniquely designed adapters easily attach to the oil filter housing and the oil pan drain. The push of a button starts a “hand’s-free” 10 minute, internal cleaning of the lube-oil system during which the specially formulated, oil-based detergent solution is circulated throughout the engine. This cleans the oil galleries, all internally-lubricated parts of the engine, and the oil pan. It also back-flushes the oil pickup screen. The sludge and abrasive contaminants are dissolved and flushed to the oil pan where they are vacuum-extracted out of the engine. This is the most effective way to do a thorough cleaning and achieve optimum results.
By comparison to other methods, when the engine is cleaned with the SLUDGE-OUT® machine, the dirty, used oil is drained out first and is purposely not utilized, in any way, during the cleaning process. This ensures that the sludge and contaminants are removed – not recirculated.
The system is designed to be versatile. It allows the technician to clean the lube-oil system with the engine off, as well as with the engine running. Recommended every 15,000 miles, or once per year, periodic cleaning with SLUDGE-OUT® will:
- Remove abrasive contaminants that cause premature engine wear and expensive repairs.
- Clean the oil galleries and pickup screen, increasing oil flow and oil pressure.
- Reduce friction, which increases engine efficiency.
- Help the engine run cleaner, lowering harmful exhaust emissions.
