seafoam questions

[mhrebin]

bought some seafoam. lookin to use about half in the oil and half with the fuel. for the oil part. just wanted to see if there was a correct way to add it? does it go in through the valve cover where you normally put oil in?

[mymp5]

yes but use 1/3 in your brake booster line it will help out alol

brake booster line. i think jeg did a how too on how to put it into that line. but he doesnt have the line specifically marked on his how to.

i seafoamed my car last night and used about half a bottle for my vacuum lines, the other half for my gas...just took off the vacuum line to my bov and stuck the hose into the bottle to suck up the seafoam...but for the na guys, just remove the pcv valve on top of your engine and pour some into there...its the line dead center on your valve cover toward the back of the engine bay...

I went to Carquest and bought everything they had

did you see a differance in your car. i did that sea foam stuff to my mitsu mighty max truck and nothing happened except a giant cloud of white smoke from the exaust. vowed never to use it again......

[mhrebin]

thats what happens when you put it in. i just put it in my main va line near the brake fluid resevoir and the exhaust got white. you may or may not feel a diff but it def works. just makes everything clean and run smooth. i noticed smoother idle, shifting ( auto :( ) and just better overall running of the motor.

do it for everything... gas, oil and vac line.
its good the engine. i went over to advanced auto and got some and what do ya know, they were having a sale on quaker state advanced full synthetic oil. buy one get one. so i treated the car to a nice drink.lol

what is seafoam?? what is does it do?

[mhrebin]

its basically a additive for your engine. you can put it in your fuel, crank case or through your vac lines. it cleans and does all that good stuff. i can really feel the diff with the synthetic oil and seafoam. smooth motor now. good stuff. costs like 5 bucks or around there.

you get a car mike? hope you aint drivin that acura around anymore.lol

no it won't harm your motor as long as you don't put the whole can through your vac line

[mhrebin]

the car is good. just got a bunch of suspension stuff. need to get some MSP endlinks and i think ill be working on the car for a weekend.

im hoping in a year or two, ill trade my pro in to get a speed3. but well see. i saw one at a dealer near my friends house in manayunk, PA and its sooooo nice. i know i def want this car after the pro. thats why im working, so i can throw a nice DP on it when i make the jump to get it.lol

im thinking bout going to the meet down in AC on the 21st, i believe. gotta see what the plans are lookin like. and i wanna get my shit on the car, but it doesnt look like it will happen in time. i need to get a new wing too. yours busted.lol

I put 1 can through the brake booster line, 1 in the oil and 1 in the gas. Too much? Car runs perfect!

Nope, not too much, just as long as you change your oil within about 50 miles.
