Sludge Build Up.

General comments?

Have had the motor flushed 3 times within the last month. Oil pressure light still comes on.

Can re-glue the rubber strip.

Oil 'flushes' are NOT going to do you any good; they are very harmful to even a good engine as they're basically nothing but kerosene, and in fact may be doing more harm than good. Usually, if the engine is sludged up, significant damage has already occurred, but if it is determined that the engine is still salvageable, then go to www.auto-rx and order a few bottles. It's helped many a 2.7 owner save their sludged-up engines. It really is a shame Dodge screwed up so bad with that engine. It, like the 1.8 turbo in the VW Passat, should only ever use synthetic oil.
