So I'm coming up on an oil change and was thinking of doing the seafoam oil cleaner then adding some European Lucas oil treatment to the new oil upon refil. I'm thinking this will clean out the gunk with old oil and the Lucas + new oil should keep everything clean and smooth. Yea or nay?

Guys, Could somebody tell me how to separate the rotor from the drive end bracket? After removing the pulley, fan, washers etc should come out easily by hand or should I use a hammer to push it out? Thank you!
