Subject:NOT another oil thread
From:Randy Huyck

Has anyone out there gone FROM Amsoil to dino oil?  I ran Amsoil in my '90
Fox for years and want to clean it out (it's been sitting for a year due to
a tranny problem) and ressurect it, and don't want to continue the hassle of
looking for Amsoil at oil changes.  I recall that when I went from
conventional oil to amsoil I was supposed to use Amsoil's proprietary engine
flush.  Could I just use Gunk or some such engine flush to make the reverse
switch?  If I can't get the Fox back into driveable condition, I might want
to rebuild the engine to put in the Vanagon some day...
