quick seafoam question about oil change
hey guys,
im about to seafoam the engine, but i only want to do the gas tank and the IM, not the crankcase
i JUST changed the oil yesterday when someone suggested to try seafoam in order to help the misfire problem i am having
anyways....do you need to change the oil after these two steps, or only after the crankcase is seafoamed?
thanks!

RE: quick seafoam question about oil change
you only need to change the oil if you put it in the crankcase. you'll be fine with just the gas tank and vac line.
