I read that you aren't supposed to use that gunk motor cleaner for you oil if you have over 50K miles on it. It breaks up your oil but has chunks too large for your oil pick up filter to pass through causing higher oil pressure because of blockage.

Wow 300K miles? Impressive.

Good luck with your car.
