if you really want it flushed just buy some cheap oil and poor it through so it comes straigh out then put some good oil in it.

would just be a waste of oil, keep on regular changes using good oil and you need never worry about things like this, prevention better than cure

Why Awesome? They're nice and friendly like, but the price they're going to charge you, you might as well bend over whilst you're at it!

Oh they're good, but it'll be 25% of the cost to do it yourself.  Plus at your cars age garage services aren't going to do much for re-sale value.

Well in that scenario then you won't do any harm going to Awesome.  I had my cambelt done there and they were excellent :afro:
