I have been wrenching for over 40 years and have seen a lot. Seldom run engines like yours creates a lot of sludge from condensation. High hour machines have way less time to build condensation, and usually are warmed sufficiently to evaporate the condensation. I highly recommend changing the engine oil once a year, dropping the oil just after you get done using it.
