Come on you guys, you're taking the fun out of it. Pour it right down those primaries and secondaries with the engine revving.

I did it in my gas once, didn't feel much as when I went directly through the vacuum line. I don't know what happens if you pour it down the carb with it running, then drive it around when the can is gone... I choke my car with the last bit and let it sit atleast overnight.

Cant seem to get hold of this stuff in Europe, especially in Tenerife, Spain. But if anyone knows of anywhere that would be great.

I'd love to try it, but I can't figure out where I'd do it without seriously pissing off the neighbors.

I do it in a parking lot by a small municipal airport. When the wind blows towards the airport. No one uses that part of the runway. And the airport shuts down at 11pm.

Oh, and do it at night.

Pissing off the neighbors is part of the seamfoam process! Whats the worst that could happen? They call the fire department? They come and there is a real fire elsewhere and many many people die because the fire squad came to a false alarm? Worth it.

or you could be nice and warn them lol, also try to possition your car so that the wind blows it away from someones house unless you don't like them...if you have to, get some popcorn and invite the neighbors over for the show lol

I just bought a car from a guy that put seafoam in the gas tank ran it for a little while, it stalled, then the starter went out, blah, blah, blah, whatever happened, this seafoam has been sitting in the motor for god knows how long....will ther be any ill effects from that? will I ever be able to start it again?

Starfox07

Well technically the longer it sits, the better. I just wonder if it will start eating seals though. Also, you might have alot of carbon debri coming out of the exhaust when you do get it running. But it won't hydrolock it, so I think you're good.

Kentetsu

I just don't see why you should even bother with the smoke show. Just dump the **** in the gas tank and you won't have to worry about it. But hey, my teenage son doesn't listen to me either.....

I'm with kentetsu on this one.

I am just now trying the sea foam in my gas tank. The truck I sold to get this rx was a 1962 IHC Scout 80. The motor was original. AFter the tune up it still back fired often and died occasionally. I added sea foam to the gas tank and from the moment I drove it next it did not back fire or stall. It continued to drive better the more I drove it, until I sold it to get an rx.

I added it to the crank case of the Scout and regretted it. It caused some external oil leaks that were probably plugged with coagulated oil over the years. Then I had to replace gaskets or connections. But that show what it can do to clean up the inside of the motor. On the plus side, it showed where the weak links were in the sealing of the motor.

Guys I just bought this one from ebay

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...m=160171203069

Anyone used this one before ?

With one bottle I can use it multiple times right ? or the whole bottle is for 1 application only ?

Thanks.

Thats expensive... Go to an auto parts store and buy 1 for cheaper

djessence

thats about how much i pay in store....and hes in dominican so it may not be available

yeah that's about the store price for me too, and well the first time i did it i only used half a can, but if your car's been sitting for a while i'd recommend to put half in the gas tank and the other half into the engine and let it sit over night, or a bit longer

Somebody should dyno prove that this stuff works. Take an engine that feels on its last leg and dyno a before and after.

It helped my GXL. I put 1 bottle into the gas tank and filled it up. Gained me 4-5 MPG.

Starfox07

I plan on making a before and after video. 3rd gear pull from 2000rpm to redline, with the camera on the tach and speedo for both runs. Should be a good indication of how effective it is.

Kentetsu

Put a can in my tank this morning, and there was a very noticeable increase in power right away, especially in the lower rpm ranges. Good stuff.

rspeed9i6

on a personal experience...ive tried the gas tank first...then thru the manifold...i noticed a bigger difference after i did it thru the manifold...also, if you go thru the tank...you dilute the seafoam with the fuel...the reason why people go thru the manifold is because its a lot more concentrated...and able for more cleaning power...

Why not put it in an old empty Windex bottle or something and spray it into the carburetor while it's running?

djessence

Im not gonna lie, I follow the instructions on the bottle and stick it in a very low tank of gas and drive the **** out of it. Results are good, fumes arent bad.......
