SeaFoam
#26
so far ive dumped it in my gas tank and with my oil change and the car seems to run alot smoother. I still have to do the big part which is running it through the vacuum line, hopefully i see some dirty black smoke leave the car.

Well i just did 1/3 a bottle through my IM and when it first went in the car smoked a bit, then it didnt while i put the rest of it. turned the car off and left it for like 5 minutes, then i turned the car back on and it struggled for a couple cranks but finally got it to start and a ton of smoke came out and the car idles a TON better and i took it for a quick spin and it pulls better than before too.
Anyone who has a car with any kind of KM's should use this product to clean out there engine.

seafoam is pure petroleum, and no, there are no negatives from the proper use of said product. I've used it numerous times to clean and decarbon engine. I've also used Marvel Mystery Oil (MMO) for the same purpose. I've found Seafoam to work better.
loudsubz, NAPA is the place I got it from... but for local stores, I recommend you just call a bunch of auto parts places.

i have a question... I have an 2002 civic with 50k on it.. and im going to be switching over from regular 5w20 to Mobile 1 0w20 Syn. Would this SeaFoam be a gd product to use to prep. my engine for the new type of oil?
Also could i use this on my mom's 19-crusty-93 minivan to give it that little extention of life that it really doesnt need?
Loudsubz.... Did u find a place in Sauga that sells it? Or anyone know of one i brampton?

I say the stuff from GM (Cleens) kicks ***!
I'm just partial to the Cleens cuz I havent tried Seafoam.
It's readily available anywhere (unlike Seafoam) and reasonably priced.
My shop cost was <$5 for 500ml of Cleens and ~$6 for the aerosol from a local jobber in Mississauga (Davies Auto).
I guess you can get it from the dealer or any other jobber who deals w/ ACDelco stuff.
BTW GM also makes a good crankcase cleaner as well at a fair price, ~$4 or less if I remember right
The Ford tune-up spray smells strong too, but I have yet to try it. The Mopar Combustion Chamber Cleaner is popular amongst the DSM guys and I've read good things about too.
Just my 2 cents.
