        I think you need to see this.Don't know how far it is true but is very much serious issue in case if it exists.

        "After engine flushes, there's a pretty high incidence of some damage to the interior of the engine," Chris Martin of Honda tells NBC Los Angeles.

        That's why Honda issued a memo to mechanics advising them not to perform engine flushes. Other major car-makers, including Ford, General Motors, and Nissan have all issued similar advisories against the service.

        Why? Over time, gummy deposits can build up inside your engine. The chemicals used for engine flush, are supposed to break up those deposits. But car-makers say, pieces of that broken up sediment can clog up other parts of the engine and ruin it.

          Yes i have also heard that - there are lots of Engine Flush Stuffs available - but i dont see any one using that...
          Its better to flush your engine before refilling the Oil with Petrol....
          My Mech usually does that to just clear the interiors of the Engine...
