What do you do in that situation....change the gasket and send it out. I'm sure the customer isn't going to pay for that engine to be cleaned out. What did they say when you pointed it out?...and the dam thing still runs/drives fine. In here just for a valve cover.

Wow. That is such a mess. I'd be afraid to send all that crap back through the system. I guess engines these days can take some serious abuse.The valve cover on these has an integrated PCV that was blown causing lean faults. Replaced that and I think they are gonna come back to clean her up some next week. BG makes an incredible dynamic engine cleaner. Basically just run the engine with 5 qt's of it for 1/2 hour (after cleaning the oil pump pickup), change the oil and run that for 1/2 hour to flush out the cleaner, and then change it again. Uses an external filter apparatus. It surprisingly works VERY well. We had a big issue with engine sludge about 10 years ago and that's when BG designed this kit for us. Customer actually wasn't even surprised, but they haven't owned it very long.
