I'm just wondering if there is any additive you can add that can clean the oil and unclog pipes.

I read in one of the threads that the celicas from 96 had a problem with oil clogging - any more info on that?

Thanks =)

yup.
art changed the oil regularly with mobil1, and i did as well, and never had even the slightest buildup of sludge

this is my 98 head, after ~100k miles. (50k of which were turbo'd, but that really dont matter for the purpose of this thread)

Wow looks really clean.
So that's just from using mobil1 oil?
If the engine already had dirt/sludge in it, does the mobil oil also clean it?
