Hello rx7 club. Quick question about using seafoam to clear out carbon build up. I've been reading threads about this topic but found mixed opinions on using seafoam for this purpose. Some say it works really well, and others say that it clears up debris in one area that move along creating problems elsewhere in the engine. What do you guys think? Is using seafoam necessary?

Thanks in advance.

 

Well if you suck the stuff in through a vacuum line directly into the engine then it can do a half decent job of cleaning stuff.
Then again you can use water to do the same job too.

I personally did it and noticed the car did run a little better,but not "WOAH!!..massive power gain!" type difference.

I do not recommend it for oil as oil is a necessity of the rotary engine and adding CRAP to it is not in this guy's book of tricks.

welcome to the board.

the simple answer is no. it's not necessary. that said, i have used it. i tend to believe it helps some with carbon removal, but like Misterstyx69, i also believe steam can be just as good. i've noticed that it helps with flooded engines though and that's really nice.
