Advice for cleaning out my OMP system?

Over the last couple of tanks, my oil level hasn't really be decreasing, and I'm guessing that my OMP is either somehow fried (S4), or that the lines are clogged.

I was just wondering what kind of tube I should use to replace the old lines, and if there's a good way to clean the injectors and pump.

I'm also assuming I'll need to be yanking the UIM to get to all this, and will need a new gasket for it. Can I just use my high-temp RTV to creat a new one, or should I talk to Mazdatrix and order one form him? Thanks!

Urizen you dont need to replace the lines or remove your intake you can do what i did which massively cleaned out my system. go to your local DIscount Auto Parts and look around for a little can called Sea Foam what it does is tear down grease and oil in your engines system you can put half the can in the oil and run it threw the system should clean it out. did the trick for mine and it runs like a champ

Ah, I've used Seafoam for fuel system cleaning before. Didn't know you could add it to oil. The biggest problem is I think it might actually be sludginated and might need something a little more harsh.

Hw much were you thinking? I don't actually know if my lines are fried, they are still semi-transparent. What I.D. are they so I can get some cheap nylon stuff to test the pump's output?
