Having an engine the previous owner used ND in is no problem to cleanup
1. Never use engine flush on a very dirty engine. It loosens things to quick and can plug oil passages
2. Use detergent
3. Use synthetic -- 165,000 miles on my Jetta. I pulled the valve cover to service it, engines clean, no sign wear.
