No April fools day joke here.. No one else was crazy enough to call an actual oil product, Snake Oil" and thats why I did it.

DO NOT use an engine flush in an M96 engine, it flushes all the contaminants into the tensioners and lifters and CAUSES problems as they are at the end of the oil system! I've seen it often!

Use the 20/50 valvoline non-synthetic. Thats fine for a flush.
