What's the best way to clean the flame trap hose going into the block without dropping the pan? I read about dumping engine flush and gently running a bottle brush down there in existing threads. But are there any serious gambles with doing it that way (beyond busting the hose) or tricks that I don't know about?
Yes, another thread about doing things the wrong way. I want to just replace the tube, but removing the oil pan involves lifting the engine. And I still don't know how to do that, or even if I'd be allowed to set up the necessary rigging here. I don't like the idea of engine flush or carbon chunks floating in my oil at all, but I'd be changing it and probably dumping some clean oil through the system immediately after.
