Default Seafoam

Hey guys, I just have some general questions about seafoam. I just filled up yesterday and have almost a full tank of gas is it ok just to throm some in there, like alot? Is there a limit as to how much I can use? I plan on just throwing about 3/4 of a bottle in the gas tank and then the rest into the oil, sound ok? Thanks again to everyone that has input and happy holidays!

its suggested that you do a whole bottle in the gas tank and about half in the oil and the rest of the half through the vac lines, but then again a bottle treats upto 25 gallons and our tanks are about 15gallons so i guess it'd be ok.

Cleans sh!it. Well it really does, cleans, prevents sludge, gets rid of carbon, all around just good stuff. It gets into the injectors, combustion chambers, basically anywhere and cleans it out. I actually bet I will see some performance gains, being that the last guy that owned the car was a flake. Thanks for the reply, Ill let you know how it works!

I just did two treatments to the vac system and the tank in the last week and while i did not see a very big difference i still think it is a good thing to be doing periodically. I want to add some to the oil next oil change.. see how that works out.


I had goodresults making my car idle better just cleaing out the MAF with some electronics cleaner.That is definetly a good trick when your cars starting to lag. Ok its besides the point but i was impressed how well it worked

Use 1 1/2 oz for each quart of oil in the crankcase.
Drive 50 to 100 miles and change the oil and filter.

Thank You! you are the first person to notice it. I was going for something different so i took off the rest of the chrome slats and left the middle ones running into the symbol. the way it used to be made kind of look like some gay billet aluminium grill like some damn 300c queerbate ride. Looks sporty now!

Well I just got done seafoaming didn't really see much difference in anything, but hey maybe thats because my car is running like a champ to begin with. I'm sure it still helped out and im glad I did it.
