Default Another sea foam story

Well with the Stang running a little rough, I thought it might be a good idea to try the Sea Foam process. I did the gas, carb, oil steps. I headed to my parents to do it where some new noisy neighbors just built a house and always party at night soooooooo I thought this would be a good place lol. One can sucked dry and let the smoking begin. I was expecting a lot of smoke but NOT that much smoke lol. It was great! Their whole back yard was covered with white smoke. Filled up last night so I put one in the tank, went to have my oil changed so I emptied a can in there also. Runs like a charm now. I am a believer.

I was thinking about doing this with my car but I think that the n20 cleans it out pretty good

I think you have to put it through the intake to get the smoke.

Wait untill the gas tank is about empty and dump in a can.It won't smoke as much as if you go in directly thru the intake but this way it goes through the injectors.

Its not gonna smoke through teh injectors......The seafoam itself isnt what causes the smoke.......

The smoke comes from oil deposites that are bieng cleaned off the back of the valves and through the intake manifold. Cleaning these while the motor is running will cause the deposites to burn and cause white smoke.

I may try it out here soon.

allthough i am hearing great things about seafoam and all, i use zmax and i have found that this product is amazing, it does the same thing as seafoam and then some...minus the huge white cloud that destroys the ozone.
but yes zmax is great stuff, instant results.
