I don't understand,
It created holes if you have them?
Can you elaborate?
As far as using seafoam in the oil, just take a second to think that through.
You are adding a solvent to the oil which has a viscosity pretty similar to that of water. It will mix with the oil and reduce the viscosity of the oil.
In my mind this is the same as dumpin coolant into the crankcase. Bad things will happen.
It is possible I missed something? If so, someone please explain it to me.
If you are worried about sludge in the engine then running a qt of aod fluid will do a decent job of cleaning the sludge out.
Keep in mind that you add 1 qt of trans fluid to a fresh oil change. Drive the car LIGHTLY until up to full temp (oil temp not coolant temp). Then drain the oil & replace filter. Drive the car a little more, and drain the oil and replace the filter again.
You don't want to have trans fluid in the oil when you start running the car hard, so it is worth the extra flush of the system.
Anyway, that is what I have done a couple times. Mostly when getting a used motor and deciding to run it 'as is'
If you change your oil fairly often you should not have any sludge issues. The oils and fuels we are running today are very good.
