I dont understand the question... If you do the crank case treatment then youll have to change your oil soon after.

You don't need to do all the treatments at once. You can do the crankcase when you want. I ran the seafoam in my oil for only 50 miles, because I'm weary of running it for more than that and MAN the oil was black.

Exactly. So you'd kind of be wasting the money you just spent on oil.

Since you just changed your oil wait till the next oil change to do the seafoam treatment. You don't want that stuff in your brand new oil, it'll just thin out and thats not good.
