I let the oil go a bit too long in the Toyo Highlander.

Can anyone recommend a good engine flush product?

Hello

Wynns make a great line of oil products. Be carefull with the 5 minute flushes, its like running thinner thru the motor, it can do more damage then good.
I have used a lifter additive (cleaning type for hydrolic lifters), ran it for a day, then change oil and filter. Its way less agressive then a flush and keeps things tidy.
Wynns Tune up (lifter and antigum)
Wynns 80+ oil additive (after new oil)

I think now-a-days there are lots of brands that will do similiar.

Good Luck
