Seafoam

[Grouseman]

Alot of guys here have had good results with Seafoam. I'm using in all my small gasoline engines and in the Cruiser and 4-Runner. I read the MSDS sheet and I'm thinking why not mix it up and save some big money. Has anybody here done that? Seafoam cost is now $6.95 for a pint. It does give you better gas mileage and smooth performance. Cleaner engine=better performance.

I also found one guy on a board that said he substituted Tranny fluid for the Pale oil, and had great results.

Thoughts?

I ran a can through my 40 last month and it idles so smooth now. It really made a difference in the way it ran. I plan on doing that about every other month as much as I have been driving it lately. (it gets way better gas mileage than my truck)

Colorado Boy, do you change the oil and plugs every time you use it?

I ran some through my 2F a few weeks ago, but stripped the oil pan drain plug while changing the oil afterwards. So I still don't know if it did anything.

Is there a good site to order online?

Most auto parts stores carry it. I think I've seen it at Walmart. I bought mine at Northern Tool.

I poured the can of seafoam additive in my fuel. I didn't do anything to my plugs. It cleans the carmelization from the fuel system.
Maybe you are thinking of an oil additive.?

Do you guys put this in your oil or gas, or both??

I pulled a vacuum line on the intake manifold and let the engine suck it in. I had to be careful not to stall the engine, though.

Oil during the last 500 miles of your oil change cycle.

Gas tank once a month.

Through the vacuum line and into the engine once every 30k miles.

It even makes a nice hair tonic
