Nothing beats a good regular maintenance routine. NOTHING! That means changing your oil regularly!
There are posts full of information on oils and oil filters on this forum and there is just flat no excuse for not keeping your oil changed. That doesn't mean buying the cheapest .49 cent oil at Wal-mart and Fram oil filters, but if that is all you can afford it is better than leaving the sludged up oil in the engine for years on end.

Whoa whoa whoa there, let's stop blaming the cleaning agent Rick.
This was caused by the fuel entering the oil, not the seafoam. This is why we say if you have a 1992-95 CPI engine, best replace the injector and nut kit even if it is not completely shot.
