Now you just need to go for the reverse ... 654321

[elwesso]

Yeah.... Ill go for that......

Since Ive owned the car, ive only put EXACTLY 4000 miles on it..... Its at 123,500, and I got it at 119,500...... Got the car in feb 03...... Ive done 2 oil changes in that amount of time......

[VimyJ]

You should change your oil more often. You are operating your car under extreme conditons. That little mileage with the commenserate sitting is hard on the engine. Change every 3 months or 3000-4000 miles.

[elwesso]

Yeah, I know...... Its gonna be that way from now on, and especailly after I get my valve covers done and everything is all nice and clean.....

[elwesso]

I also plan on doing an engine flush procedure, along with a rail flush.....

Looks like I get a trip to the infiniti dealer...... Do you think a nissan dealer would have that stuff (since theres one in town, no infiniti dealer here...)

Call Tom Mackin of Northwest Envirolution, Inc. and he will tell you where the nearest facility is, and will ensure that they have the correct adapters to service your engine. If it is an Nissan dealer, you are probably alright, but call first to confirm.

Infiniti of Kirkland uses their machine for the coolant system flush also.

Man, you need to drive more! I've had my 92 Q just as long and racked up 12k (now humming along at 181k). Then again, wherever I live its always a long drive to go anywhere. I live in my car.

[rydwhite]

Yeah, I got my G in February and have put a little over 13K on it so far. Come on Wes, get the Q on the road.

What is an "engine flush"?

[PalmerWMD]

What is an "engine flush"?

A term, applied to any proceudre designed to clean out lubricated areas from oil sludge and/or varnish.

Some very different procedures can be called "flush" from a simple "throwing in a can od CD2" to hooiking up a machine running detergettns thru the oil galleries.

2k per oil change is pretty good Wes. You can go 6k with synthetic easy.

You can go 10K miles, but should you? There are some great posts on this board about oil chemistry and use parameters. Might try a search.__________________Brian1995 Q45 & Q45t & 2000 Q45

In terms of oil change durations, etc., I strongly recommend that everybody get hold of, and read, the book that I mention in this thread:

Im not gonna go longer than 3k, since I always have short trips......

Has anyone heard of the Blistein engine flush procedure??? It looks decent......

I have the next 2 days off school, so Ill stop by the Nissan dealer and see what they can do..... Its only a few minutes away, and as you can see I do need to drive more!!!!

[Chaz98Q45t]

That's cool - did you have the Q floored or what - purring along at 50mph and the tach is at almost 4k? I just turned 63k - can't wait to get to 123456.

[elwesso]

No, I just thought id liven the situation up a little...... No mashing, I was in a 40 zone.....

If it would have happened sooner, I could have gotten one of it at the redline......

[Chaz98Q45t]

Good thinkin' on liven it up a little. Check your emails, I emailed you and want to make sure it went thru...

[elwesso]

I got your email Chaz, and I just replied!!!
