Marcus,

Thanks for the input!

How do you make sure you do not have old and tainted oil in your oil cooler and oil lines? I think the flush is 'kerosene-based' and I recall when I was a kid that rubber disintegrate in kerosene. This is the reason why I am concerned about leftover inside the system.

Do you just ignore this possibility or fact of old/tainted oil staying in the cooler? As for the container, I do have a super big container so this is not an issue.

I am tempted to drain the oil and once 'dry', I would run the engine to very momentarily (repeatedly) to "FORCE" old oil out of the cooler and lines.

Input??????????
