Running Techron in the fuel before an oil change does two things. It cleans the fuels lines. It also works its way into the oil. Hence, the need to change the oil after treating the fuel system with Techron. It seems to me that maybe the reside Techron that is deposited in the oil may act like an engine flush, well sort of.

Never run a motor without oil!!! Even for a short period of time. Even on a brand new motor, if you didn't apply lube to the bearings and such you can cause significant damage upon the initial start up of the motor.
