| you can cure that sludging in your escort by flushing the old oil then fill with diesel oil, it quietens the tappets down and stays clean for months. tried and tested many times | |

| aha, thanks I will do that because it likes to tell everyone it has very loud noisy tappets when it is cold. I have unplugged the rocker breather from the airfilter so any water from there evapourates into the air opposed to bunging up the air filter! | |

i found the best sludge remover is made by holts. they stock it in thanet auto stores in margate. put it in and run for atleest a week so it loosens it all up. its better if you can afford to fit new filter and cheep oil with the flush. | |
