So,
I have a Eurovan, 2.5 liter water cooled motor..
Overall it runs great..but there is a ticking that just wont go away..and it seems to be getting worse with age..

I was thinking..
I remember that I did this once before..

Remove all the oil, get a fresh oil filter, and fill the case with Kerosene...
Let it run for a few minutes, till warm..
Then dump it all out...new filter...new oil
run for a day
new oil and filter again...

Does that sound right?
My goal is to clean out the sludge...
