That 18-year-old pickup I serviced last week looked like new after an oil flush

Guy brought in a 2007 F-250 with 280k miles, said it had been running rough for months and he was about to scrap it. I talked him into a full engine flush and fresh HDEO oil, and after the change it purred like it just left the lot. Has anyone else seen that dramatic a turnaround from just a simple cleaning?

Flush bought you time at best. That many miles doesn't just disappear with some cleaner.

Flush bought you time, not a fix. That motor's still wearing out.

Oh yeah, a quick flush never fixes the real problem underneath.
