To Wesley Boyer:

What was MY count?? As stated, Zero, we never experienced engine damage on any car we've purchased. As stated we inspect the valve chamber and if full of crud then cleaning of the pan is in order, a rare occurrence.

Or did you mean THE count of other poster's experiences?
Still ZERO as those who experienced failure had or saw valve chamber crud and did nothing.

As I said, we use common sense, if the valve chamber is clean, do nothing; if full of crud then clean the pan. 56 years/400 cars/no problems.
