You have to have a session to use this link. It won't work for us.

It would be better to show a picture of it.

Depends if you put it in your oil or your tank.

Dunno what you're trying to do, but I wouldn't put that crap in my engine.

Use it as a fuel injector cleaner. Just dump the full can into your next full tank of gas. IMO, you should be using one of the FI cleaners at every 10th fill up or before every oil change anyway.

Some people like to use it as a 'vacuum feed' decarbon, the ol' smoke show. I don't recommend this 'cause many don't do it correctly, and water(which is cheaper) makes one of the best combustion chamber carbon removing cleaners.

It can be used as an engine oil flush. Add to cold engine oil, run it no load for <10 minutes, and you MUST change your oil immediately after the flush. Consider a shorter 1k oil interval to remove the rest of the seafoam. With 3k/3mo oil change intervals, your engine should never need any flush products in the motor oil, so why bother?.

I sent my 20 year old injectors to be cleaned and they tested before/after with about a 3% difference. AFAIK there's never been fuel injector cleaner in my car's system.

I poured it down the carb of my old 1984 Toyota, coverd the neighborhood in the amazing smoke show as I gunned it around the block, and seriously the difference was night and day. Beforehand, that car had so much hesitation and the throttle response was horrible. It drove like a different car.
