Re: Buying 98 3.8 Firebird with problems, need advice

sorry for not specifying on the bottle of gunk. is basically a petrolium destilate that you add before an oil change, kinda to clean the inside of your engine, clean valves, and loosen oil "gunk". walmart sells then for 3.00 dlls or so, but im sure autozone or checkers has them too.
