    I friend of mine picked up a wj with the 4.0 for a trail rig build 212k on the odometer. We pulled the head off and pressure washed it lol. That was about 20k miles ago still going strong 👍

    5:50 made me think about a visit to the dentist where a fine stream of liquid is squirted on the teeth and gums while a strong suction device simultaneously removes it.

      Me either. The easiest and most important thing to do is change the oil.

  • @BSF628
    @BSF628 2 ปีที่แล้ว +10

    I know this videos a little old but did you see your oil pressure pick up a little at idle after this? If that was my head I would drain the oil and fill with ATF and let it idle for 10 to 15 mins then drain it out, should clean up alot of the gunk you couldn't get with the shop vac.

  • @projectbumblejeep4190
    @projectbumblejeep4190 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    Sea Foam about a week before you oil change, over time will clean up messes like this. I also use high mileage Sea Foam in my fuel every couple of fill ups. Stuff works for me...BTW, I change oil about every 3000ish miles. Hope it helps. God bless, stay well.

  • @mitchstaff8281

    With these engines just cover the intake inlet and use air and a screwdriver to clean it. A vacuum works really good at first but you will muck it up. Spray it, brush it, blow it. Then change the oil and filter. It'll be fine.

  • @lwil6393
    @lwil6393 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Make sure You change the CCV valve system when you do the valve cover job, these get plugged or restricted and will cause the sludge problem. Should replace them every 4th oil change or so.

    Ford filter also fits. Larger, with more capacity.
    From naxja forum..
    It is a Ford V8 oil filter.
    For Mobil it is the M1-301 filter.
    For Motorcraft it is the FL-1A filter

    What causes this? I see this on YT and Ticktock- but I've never seen it IRL. Just people not changing their oils or what?

    • @Donnythelatemodeltech
      @Donnythelatemodeltech  ปีที่แล้ว

      Pretty sure the heads on these things are the reason. Combined with the Quaility of oil used for the extremely high miles these things usually have.

    There is only one way this comes about some one is not changing the OIL
    is the compression is good one can do a good sludge treatment on the thing pull the pan and that is probably leaking also and replace the oil pump and bearings this can give some life back to this motor for a few years this can be done for less then 500 dollars the other way to go is to replace the motor for about 3000 dollars
    i have known of 4.0 doing 400k

      Is that what causes this?! Just people NOT changing their oils? I've never seen this in person, just short videos on YT or FB. I've always wondered what causes it.

      Small dealers who then hurt good people by dropping these lemons on them. Until they finally run out of luck and drop one on a guy who doesn’t mind going back to prison.

      I'm more concerned about the "at work we usually just get rid of these right away comment". Hopefully meant send them to scrap yard.
