hey guys im new the forums and i just got a new trans am with an ls1.

i was told the oil was dirty and i had to change it for some clean oil. well the problem was i didnt have any oil with me so i figured i could just use some soap to clean it out. i used dawn (i had a bottle i use to clean the grease off my dishes, figured that was ok?) and put half a bottle in where the oil goes. i also figured i might as well put some into all the other containers under the hood to clean everything. well after i put it in, my engine started to run funny and then just shut off (smells good though i used some apple scented soap). i can't get it to start, am i suppose to hose it out with water or something? any help would be great, cant wait to get this thing moving again!

yea,hose it down really good and run it with water for about 10-15 minutes. also spray some wd40 in the motor to lube everything up! good luck!...........................

You fucked up when you added Dawn, you should have used Ajax dish soap.

dont forget to put some soap in your gas tank. That actually increases the octane rating thus increase performance. Heres another secret, add a bar of soap inside the intake so that the engine always breathes clean air!

Youre trying too hard to start an "epic thread" of some sort. FAIL! ******* somewhere else.
