i just added seafoam to my intake and wow what smoke came out. When i first removed my vacuum line i thought my engine was going to implode by the amount of shaking it was doing, also dident help what i was running lean. I added one cup and i first their was no smoke at all. Was pondering why would a 104k mile car produce no smoke? Well once i reved it that's when the smoke machine started to kick in. Ill see how well it drives when i go to class later today.

i have used this stuff in my motor after my buschur catch can collected wated and drained it down into the dipstick return. i had a white residue inside my valve cover and on my dipstick.
i put the seafoam in and let the car idle for 15 min. drained the oil and put new stuff in. before i drained the old oil i looked inside the oil cap and all the white residue was gone. **** works.

Just curious but after you poured that cup down the vac line you didn't shut the car off for 5 minutes to let your motor parts marinate in it? Or are you saying you shut it completely down and later on you are gonna go out and beat on it? I am just taking notes as I am curious what different courses of action yield what results

I think what tigger was referring to were the directions on the back of the can. It says that once you pout 1/3 pint into the vacuum line you shut the car off for 5 minutes and the turn it back on. I just did it last night and I remember reading the directions like 10 times before I poured it anywhere lol

One more thing, just making sure about the procedure. So it goes... poor slowly into vac line, turn off engine, reattach vac line, wait 5 or so minutes, turn car on, rev it, then drive it?

my 2 cents for what its worth...it may not hurt or harm our cars in any way,BUT if it's so great why doesn't Buschur or AMS or RRE or anyone sell it or use it on their cars? Maybe they do and it'd be interesting to find out if any racing teams who do run full race synthetic lubricants use it after every race or test and tune . just some food for thought. what do u guys think? maybe the guys over at lucas, redline, or amsoil can chime in and give us their thoughts and some feed back on this stuff?
