I use B12 chemtool for an engine flush at most oil changes since I neglect them a bit to since I drive 600+ miles a week. I also use a bottle in the gas tank from time to time. Its also a great parts cleaner. Does anyone else use this stuff. I have become kinda religious about using it. So has the shop I work out of from time to time.

You have major horrible problems if you have to flush the engine at every oil change.
I would never dilute my oil this way. I wonder what damage you did internally?
It is a strong solvent old fashioned type cleaner.
It can be useful in the fuel, but better modern types are available.

No problems with the motor. I just use it to clear some of the deposits. In my 2000 F150 I had a HG blow at 140k due to a bad coolant seal. The cams had absolutely no wear on them. I used this in every other oil change sine 70k. I also don't mind having a slight octane increase from the toluene.
