You've used it before?

I bought 2 bottles for my car. 109k. Not that I have a problem, I just figure it's a "why not" thing. I also want to switch to synthetic, mainly for the cold temperature start-up factor here in Buffalo for next winter (and I only drive 10k a year so it won't cost me too much more a year).

Haven't had a chance to use it. I'm waiting until I get 1500 miles on my current oil, then changing the filter and putting some in. No use in wasting 1500 miles of good oil

Now I thought flushing the engine was a bad thing since certain particulars over time help it move.

That math part is right, but a 3.0l engine does not hold 3.0l of fluid.

I hope Lia Honda on Transit Road in Clarence didn't tell you that you had a sludge problem. If you went to Lia, they have a tendancy to over exaggerate regarding everything regarding your car. They make tons of money off of the uninformed. Hope you didn't take your car to Lia for service of any type!
