How do I flush engine of Oil/water in oil pan?

Pin hole in timing chain cover allowed water into oil pan from water pump. 1996 Dodge Ram 1500 w/ 5.2 Liter. Mixture came up out of dip stick tube. Is there a flush I can buy? Or do I just replace the filter and oil a couple of times. All 8 plugs are clean and dry. Driven 28 miles in this situation.How do I flush engine of Oil/water in oil pan?
Go to your local auto parts store and ask them for an additive to remove gunk and moisture in your oil.


Go home and drain the pan. Leave the filter be for now.


Fill engine with required amount of oil minus 1 quart. You need room for the additive.


Drive around the neighborhood and get the oil nice and hot. The additive instructions should tell you how long.


When you get back home dump the oil immediately while it is still hot. BE CAREFUL NOT TO BURN YOURSELF.


Replace the oil filter and refill the engine with the required quarts of oil.

In addition to what ever you do to change the oil filter and drain and refill a couple times, when your ready for the final new oil and filter, definitely use http://www.mobiloil.com synthetic oil or similar to protect the engine at least for a couple oil changes. Of course smaller amounts of water (condensation) are normally burned off from the hot oil as you drive.
you can take out the oil plug then pour about a gallon of diesel fuel in were you put your oil an the diesel fuel will fluse the water an old oil out leave the cap an oil plug out for about an hour then put plug back in an fill with new oil.
just drain the oil and change the oil and filter. drive it for awhile and change it again. a couple of times then you should be ok.
Drain the oil and remove the oil pan and clean it. The amount of water left over should be tiny and will evaporate when the engine is hot enough.
drain oil pan for a few days fill oil pan and crank run a few days drain wil do it you can add a oil flush if you want but just simlpe draining it type into search box how to flush a motor should really you can find how to replace most anything just by typing it into search box How do I flush engine would work you want a video add that to end like How do I flush engine video
My grandfather used to use kerosene to clean out engines that had this condition.

He.s right but let it sit for several days and most of this will


settle to the pan.change the oil filter several times in the first


week of driving.
