But, Walt had the better idea using compressed air.

These engines do run very clean. I have my '82 apart and after 90k miles all I have is a slight varnish on the engine case internals. You will be fine!

Best regards,

Mahalo Michael for the link and the info on your engine.

Wayne - Nice analogy with the clot, as I have had that problem too in my calve after a major knee surgery. Fortunately the clotting was not too severe and blood thinners help. I see what you mean, even if the human body is much more precise than a mechanical engine. I was more concerned about seals not being able to handle whatever type of flush was being used, but still I'll take the advice from you and others on proceeding with oil changes and having my oil analyzed.
Mahalo!
