I have sludge due to not changing the oil properly. The mechanic says that it is not bad enough to ruin the engine but i need to get it removed. How can i do that?
Flushing your engine could only cause more problems as in sludge breaking loose and stopping up oil pick up screen which would cause low oil pressure which could be fatal to any motor only true fix to removing engine sludge would be to completely disassemble engine and clean with high pressure or have cleaned by machine shop in a vat with solvant

There are no hard and fast rules for curing an engine of sludge buildup. If it's really bad, flushing the engine might be the only cure.
If you do decide to do an oil flush, first drain your engine of all it's oil, but leave the old oil filter in place. Next fill it up with flushing oil and run it at a fast idle for about 20 minutes. Finally, drain all this off (and marvel at the **** that comes out with it), replace the oil filter, refill with a good synthetic oil and voila! Clean engine
