Oil power Flush procedure for low compression engine

[CAPTahab7]

I have a Merc 4.3 L 190 CARB on a 2003 Stingray. Water got in the oil from bad head gasket and turned it to gray mush. I've drained and replaced the oil, but it still is not flowing (my oil pressure guage does come up so I know the pump is working). Does anyone know how to 'power' flush the oil. I can't start the thing so all the flush kits I've seen (basically thin oil or chemical additive to reduce sludge not viable).

My compression numbers after rebuilding the heads are a dismal 60psi and I'm not seeing the oil pump up to the rocker arms in the valve cover. Hoping with oil flowing compression will increase (as well as my engine not burn up).

Ayuh,.... As I said in yer other thread,....
Readjust the valves,... Ya got 'em Too Tight....

No, there's no power flush for oil systems....
'n there's No relationship between oil pressure, 'n cylinder compression...

I can close out this thread. The valves were adjusted OK, but my timing was way off. Its running now. Thanks.

One thing... I would throw in a can of Mystery Oil and run it for a while then change oil again. That stuff is like a magic elixer
