bansheeyfz Posted January 30, 2008 Report Posted January 30, 2008 My friend used it on the " D " And it smokes like a beast. You have to suck it through a vacume line on the engine (usually off the brake booster) After the seafoam is put through the engine it is supposed to clean all the carbon and debris in the engine to make it run and idle smoother... YO do you know what the dangerous "d" is running now a days? Low 10's last time i checked. Quote
20Banshee03 Posted January 31, 2008 Report Posted January 31, 2008 I have used it on both my truck and my Camaro. I did a video of the Camaro. Here is the link if you would like to see the smoke. http://myspacetv.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=...ideoid=19395730 I had about 60K on the Camaro when I did this. It had been done about 25K miles prior to that. On my truck I had 110K miles and I noticed about 1 mile increase in gas mileage. I highly recommend it. I put 2 bottles in the truck. I on the vacuum line to the brake booster, 1/2 bottle in the gas and the other half in the oil. You need to change your oil after you use Sea Foam. Quote

Skidmark Posted February 17, 2008 Report Posted February 17, 2008 Sweet find, I always wondered about how to use that stuff. Quote
shudakeptquiet Posted March 6, 2008 Report Posted March 6, 2008 Anybody run it through their Shees? I wonder how that would go? Quote
bioshee Posted April 13, 2008 Report Posted April 13, 2008 I've used seafoam in my equipment and off road trucks and havent been let down yet Quote
wannashee20 Posted April 27, 2008 Report Posted April 27, 2008 I have had nothing but good experiances with it. Seafoam about everything I have driven, everything smokes like crazy when you use it right! Just remember you kinda have to get on the gas for it to work the best, gose hand in hand why they say to really hammer on your car/truck once in a while to clean the carbon out too! Quote
Bansh-eman Posted April 27, 2008 Report Posted April 27, 2008 (edited) i am havig a little bit of a prblem with this 98 escort beater i bought lst week, so i sea foamed it and i didnt see any smoke at all. i know there has got to be shit built up in there! its got 113k on it and the PCV valve was not ealed when i got it so there has to be shit in there to be cleaned! i should probly do the lower half of my motor with it too. do you replace the x amount of oil with sea foam or do you run th sea foam on top of the regular amount of oil?

okbeast Posted April 27, 2008 Report Posted April 27, 2008 I've added the seafoam to the oil, then run it for 100 miles or so then do an oil change. Quote
Bansh-eman Posted April 27, 2008 Report Posted April 27, 2008 I've added the seafoam to the oil, then run it for 100 miles or so then do an oil change. word, i put a whoe bottle in my gas and didnt see anything happen. and the tank isnt even full so if any thing it should be burning that shit off! I guess i will go to kragen and get another bottle and see if they will run a computer to try and pull cods. I can not figure out what wrong. I have changed the plugs, wires, pcv valve, air filter, fuel filter, and it still feels like its cutting out when i start moving fro a stop and even at speeds soe times. Quote
Bansh-eman Posted April 28, 2008 Report Posted April 28, 2008 i put in a new TPS and it seems to be good now. I am going to add some sea foam to the oil and let it clean all that shit out and see how well she runs. Quote
Bansh-eman Posted April 28, 2008 Report Posted April 28, 2008 ok fellers, i added 6oz of sea foam to my oil and started her up ran it about 5 mins and there was not a single bit of smoke, so i have a full bottle of sea foam in my gas which is only half full and 6oz in the oil. from everything i have seen online this stuff normally smokes its ass off when it start buring all the junk out. Mine had zero smoke, now i know with out a doubt that this ford clunker with 113k on it HAS to have carbon build up. When you guys ran it did yours smoke ? Quote
okbeast Posted April 28, 2008 Report Posted April 28, 2008 The only time it smokes is when you run it straight into the motor, not in teh gas or in the oil. On my silverado I take off the vacuum line from the brake master cylinder and suck it in through that. Try that and you'll get some smoke, either from teh crud or just from burning the seafoam. Quote

wannashee20 Posted May 23, 2008 Report Posted May 23, 2008 The seafoam can should have a nossel sort of thing on it so that when you pull the hose off you can just put the nosel right in side of it. But the engin should be held at an rpm of like 1.5 to 2 grand for best results so it helps to have someone that can lend a hand. also the vehicle should run for at leat 5-10 minutes after the stuff is added ( dont just shut off the car unless it is overheating ) after that take it to a back road and give it some gas to clean everything out!
