  • Another seafom question!

    Ok I did a search and found nothing. My question is how many products do you have to buy of this seafoam stuff. From what I understand, I will need 2 or 3? Isn't there just 1 that will clean the carbon out of my engine? What do you guys use? Thanks for your help.

    Just buy the all-in-one application type. It cleans the carbon, plus you can treat the oil and gas as well.

      Oh, alright. Just wondering, how much does a bottle of that stuff cost?

        round 4-5 bucks
        and if you put it in the oil...
        do it about 500 miles before you change your oil
        that way it clears all that crap out and you drain the crap when you change oil. then id just suggest use it in your gas and vacuum line when you do the oil change.

          ^so by putting it in your oil it does the same effect as it would by putting it in your brake line or whatever they tell you to do? I mean cleaning all the carbon out and stuff. Does it still smoke? I would imagine it wouldnt?

            you know what, i am actually thinking of just putting it into my gas tank. will this still be an effective way of cleaning the carbon buildup?

                  i did mine today...

                  didnt see any smoke..


                  it did stall the car tho.. i poured half into the vacuume line..and half in gas tank.

                  dont really notice a difference.. besides the fact that my vacuum line got ****ed up when it rubbed against the serpentine belt... DOH!!!

                  how much to replace a vacuum line?

                    Tyler, you could find someone on here that probably has an extra one. Post in the wanted section.

                    I put the seafoam in my gas tank and I think my injectors must have been in pretty bad shape because it runs a lot smoother now. I didn't notice it until the tank was almost gone but it did a really good job. When I first noticed it, I actually thought my accelerator pedal was stuck down.
