Is it save to use engine flush?

change engine oil today after 5000 Kms. the oil in BLACK color.Very DARK BLACK color. I can see black oil around rockers. So planing to flush the engine. use Liqui Moly is best or just use thinner engine oil to flush the engine?

*There is a carbon stain on the floor from exhaust, in every morning start. The engine oil became black because of the wrong twin SU mixture?

Engine flush is safe but not needed for gasoline contamination. To clean the oil system, change the oil & filter. Run engine at idle until fully warm, then change it again

basically the same instructions as using Flush, except you save the cost of the flush

Thanks. I'll normally use 20w50. Should I use thinner oil for flushing?

20W is thin enough. Put 2 liter in , start the engine to flush the bad oil out
