In addition to their reliability over the long haul, today's diesel engines have become increasingly efficient. These benefits, however, are not a given. We as owners need to take care of our engines as well. Here's an announcement from June 15 about a new product from Champion Brands, the 5 Minute Engine Flush.

Champion Oil, a global leader in specialty lubricants, has announced the launch of a 5-Minute Engine Flush (Part #4133) with robust solvent characteristics that cleans valves, stubborn engine deposits, sludge, varnish, plus restores lost performance. The product protects, frees sticking valves and removes harmful buildups.
Sludge buildup can be caused by prolonged oil change intervals, stop-and-go driving, or vehicle inactivity for months at a time.
Engine oil is intended to cycle through the engine, lubricating components to help keep them in good working order. Sometimes, however, the manner in which a person drives can interfere with the oil being able to do the job it was meant to do.
For example, short trips and lots of stop-and-go driving can cause particles in the oil to become deposits in a diesel engine, which builds up over time. If this particulate matter becomes excessive, clean oil is virtually useless in removing it.
The procedure for this 5-Minute Engine Flush is as follows. Remove a small amount of oil from the engine and add Champion 5-Minute Engine Flush, which is designed to break up carbon, varnish and sludge deposits in the engine. Take the vehicle for a test drive, or idle for 10 minutes while occasionally increasing the RPM to work the chemical throughout the engine. As the deposits are loosened they will become suspended in the oil and trapped in the filter. The vehicle is then ready for a new oil change with a new filter, thereby removing the dirt, gunk and used oil.
There are other benefits to consider. For example, if your diesel vehicle has experienced a head gasket leak where coolant has seeped into the crankcase and mixed with the oil, it is important that this is cleaned out thoroughly.
A pre-owned vehicle with no maintenance records or recent internal engine repairs would benefit from a flush. And when there have been long intervals between oil changes, a flush would address the matter of oil getting dirtier over time with the likelihood that carbons and other particles have built up in the engine.
Champion 5-Minute Engine Flush is a highly effective cleaning product that gives engines a fresh start. The treat rate is 24 oz. for diesel applications.
