Engine Mechanical problem
1974 Chevy Truck V8 Two Wheel Drive Automatic 200mi miles
----------------------------------------------------------------
after replacing a bad/cheap/warpped intake manifold, how should I flush the "milkshake" out of the block. I know to change oil/filter and run, but run how long and change how many times? Thanks for any help. Jon

Do an engine flush and see what happens-for me I use transmission fluid for 10mins. then drain it and renew the oil/filter never had a problem.
