The Jetta 1.8 RV engine that I have installed into my '90 "Bare Bones"
Vanagon has a thin brown coating, like a lacquer, on the inside of the
engine (block and head).  I imagine it is from infrequent oil changes or
was just plain run very hot.  I thought that perhaps a MMO/Delo 400
15w40 cocktail mixed at about 1:3 would work its magic and clean all the
insides to a spic and span condition when I finally get it running.  As
long as I have it, I'll have to try some mixed with the gasoline
too...yummy.
