Sea Foam - Do you Use It?


Recommended Posts

I've resurrected the dead with that stuff. Works wonders in poorly maintained equipment. I also add it to help stabilize the fuel in my gas cans.

 

I was just thinking today that I should add some to my truck since I've been running E85 in it. Help lube the injectors and maybe keep the seals from drying out.

I tried it on a subaru.

melted the alloy.

 

maybe I should have left the little nuclear muffin of love alone.

 

for long term, I attack from the fuel side. Carbon is actually awesome, stripping it off is not.

the sickest thing we all have is the paper element oil filters.

I went stainless mesh in a billet, some kinda miracle going on there.

both my old subaru and truck have one from professional products.

 

for outside the engine, the worst ever gets "bomb's away" cleaner from a truck stop local, following instructions closely.

Don't buy a Subi. :)

True story tranks;

I always have a can in my truck, last spring came into the boat dock and a boat sitting on the trailer was barely running, old 2 cycle outboard with a 6 gal. tank. Mentioned Sea Foam, sold them the can I had and suggested half the can in the fuel tank.

The gunk that came out of that motor was unreal, 15 minutes it was running good. They were ecstatic that I had saved there fishing trip and a wasted 2 hour drive to the lake. Watched them blast to the far end of the lake to fish the weeds.

I've been running it in the oil of my Dodge Ram. Its got 168K miles and I figured it cant hurt to do a few oil changes with sea foam, I've been doing 500 to 1000 miles per change.

 

I have not opened up the motor to see if anything is cleaner yet. There was a little bit of build up when I changed the valve cover gaskets two years ago.

Has anybody used this in oil/crank case? It says 1 ounce per quart of oil for 100 to 300 miles before an oil change.

I just learned about this stuff now. So you put it in the oil right before you do an oil change? Any reason why you don't want to leave it in there longer?

Sahls, I would put some in the fuel tank but you can also do a tb clean.

Rock, instructions on can say 100 to 300 miles before oil change and 1 to 1.5 ounces per quart of oil. You could leave it in longer I guess.

 

Search for sea foam lots of info on the site.
