help 2.7 motor
 
Thanks I did buy a 2.7 motor with 16000 miles on it out of a 04 sebring sedan. The only differance is the egr valve. I should be able to swap the rear exhaust manifoldand intake from my motor to the new one. Is there anything I can do to get the most out of this new motor? Everyone has this slugging build up problem. Can something be done to stop this? Is there a certain kind or oil I should use to get a longer life out of this new motor?What would you do?thanksRuss

one word "SEAFOAM" you can buy it at your local auto supply store, read the label. This will keep the sludge fron forming and clean build-up that may already be there. I put 1/2 a can in the crank case and the other 1/2 in the gas tank, this keeps the fuel system and the engine clean.

Use Amsoil Full Synthetic 5W30. You will never have the problem again.
