97 4.0L OHV. Intake gasket leaked coolant. (Compression OK, thankfully). Intake bolts were torqued at less than 10 N-m. (spec is 16).
Took intake off and now I need to clean out the water/oil sludge. I can wipe out a lot and use various cleaners to spray the crud down into the pan. I've heard about using diesel as oil and running engine for few seconds to clear oil passages.
Any other suggestions?
Thanks.
