'96 Sport 1.8 DOHC Clanking Valves
#7
it's ok , just dont drive up a mountain, with that in the pan.
Great work !
sure. and i hope it holds, with freq, oil changes now, it can..... for sure,
and yes, ive used it, in a panic. (desperation is real and can happen)
sure sealant. or better new gasket ,if old.
I had a old ford v8 and it would foul the HLA lifters every month and the flush worked. for a about 1 month. (uncles car , he gave up)
finally hands up, off came the intake and behold the exh, heat riser in the intake had a bad gasket , it was dumping raw exhaust into the oil.
it looked like Volcano lava from there in to the engine. BINGO. real cause found, and then soaked the HLA for 2 days in acetone, or MEK. (pristine)

in your case, it could just be bad maintenance or engine has huge bypass gases, (pcv bad or was bad) or running rich for years, fouling the oil fast. (or all this)

im so glad for you, getting it quiet.....!!!
