fill up the engine with brake cleaner fluid. that would clean out all the oil you put. now flush it out and put power steering fluid in it. that will help seal the rings. now flush that out and fill up the engine with that sealant fluid for head gaskets, to prevent head gasket failure. after that, drain everything out, and fill up with oil and change the filter. now, because you wore out the bores of the cylinders you will need slightly thicker than usual oil, so use 75w90 gear oil instead of the ester oil. do this and you'll be just fine, with no problems for the rest of the car's life.
