Good to hear I can save a few bucks and go back to the synthetic blend.
As for the old binder.
I am going to make sure it runs good first but the cleaning will need done. And I will cover the parts mentioned. Didn't really think about it getting into my well. Good call.
I have already tore some of the engine apart and cleaned. The head has been completely rebuilt. When I drained the oil, it took a good 30 seconds to start coming out and there was so much sludge it came out in the shape of a shot glass until it broke through and started draining. I pulled the pan and there was easily about 2" of sludge that was caked on the bottom. So I've seen both the top end and the bottom end of the motor and both look clean and good. I have also filled the block up with water and it didn't leak a drop over the coarse of a day. Then drained it out. I am going to put a can of seafoam in the first startup and let it idle for some time and then immediately do another oil change. Temporarily I have mechanical oil pressure and water temp gauges hooked up to it to make sure that's all good.
