Hello, I just bought and Intrepid 99 yesterday with 93k miles (in an auction for 2k) and works perfectly, I just was curious on the internet about my new car and found lots of places mentioning the sludge thing... men I am really luky (well not at all)... so I just would like to ask for a recomendation and is as follow: What its more convenient, to pay a mechanich for oper the machine and clean the sludge, or change the oil many times, if the answer its the second, how many times? if someone will open the machine for clean the sludge its convenient to do omething else, like change the timing chain (I know if I ask the mechanic will say yes) but what its the cheapest and convenient way? What else do you recomend?

The link below explain very well the problem.

Thanks in advance
