What kind of liquid can I use to clean out the engine block inside like where the oil passes through. In my car I have low oil presure and ive tryed everything to get it up and everything failed. How do the piston rings go on these pistons.

Hi there,

There are good quality engine oil flushes, they do work well, you can also run a mix of diesel and engine oil as well, but caution must be taken when doing this as bearing failure can result if the engine loads are to great, I would stick to the commercial products, the rings are fitted into machined groves in the pistons.
