I always have some Hy-Gard left from changing it in my farm tractors. I save it back and use it for a flushing agent. It seems to have strong detergent properties. I overfill a crankcase and then belt up to the tractor (not starting it) and let the oil do it's thing. It works very well. It might not be worth getting a bunch of new Hy-Gard for but if you have some lying around put it to good use here. It works. Mike [Reply]   [No Email]

The good thing about using fuel or hy gard, is that not only does it flush but also will loosen up stuck or frozen parts while its in there. [Reply]  [No Email]
