That stuff is very high detergent and will break down loads of parafin,carbon and varnish.If you go that route I suggest you not wait for a long period before oil change,to get rid of the contaminants.Then do several follow ups until you have a clean engine. It works.Do not go at you problem to heavily or you may partly block the oil pump suction screen. Watch the oil pressure gauge.
