I'm trying to sell my Citroen Picasso 2.0 HDI and got scammed by buyers putting used oil into the header tank of the cooling system and telling me that the head gasket had blown.

Now I need to figure out how to clean up the mess they left. The engine has been run so oil may have been pumped throughout the cooling system.

Start by getting as much of the oil as you can out of the header tank, then do a thorough flush of the cooling system. If you have a plastic overflow tank you may want to clean it with a bit of detergent if any of the oil got into it.
