well the idea of driving after putting seafoam in the crankcase is so that the seafoam can work its magic. driving would get the oil, which now contains seafoam, moving all throughout the motor, breaking down oil sludge. so i think its best to drive with the seafoam.

Why isn't there a seafoam diy sticky? It seems like there are at least 5 seafoam threads started every week.

There are pleanty of seafoam DIY's. WHen i seafoamed my B6 I put 1 can in a full gas tank, and 1/2 can in crankcase, and the other 1/2 invac line. Idrove off the whole tank of gas, then changed my oil. I would go a little longer than 50 miles. I did a little more than300(thats what the DIY i followed said to do) and my car is still running strong.
