Default Seafoam in the Crank Case

For the seafoam in the crank case, do I just add it to where the oil goes (in the engine bay). Basically the dipstick location?

Yes to the oil. You add to where the screw off cap is. Not the dipstick. Normal place when adding quarts of oil. After adding, change out your oil within 50 to 100 miles. Varied opinions on this but that is a good amount not to exceed. .

yup. make sure you change your oil within 100 miles or so thereafter. When it comes out it should be pitch black

Half a can? Not 1/3? Is there a ratio of the proper amount to quarts of oil?

No your fine. We like to use half in the oil...Half in the intake, and another full can for the fuel .
