Car runs like new...here's what I did

[L0sT]

same here, no black smoke, just a **** load of white smoke

[SkillaSX]

Is there anything I can put on the exhaust tips to stop the majority of black smoke from coming out? I live in a pretty up tight area, and my neighbours will ***** if they see my car smoking up the whole block. They even complain when I work on my car in my own drive way. They tell my parents thats it not good for the environment (I was flushing rusty water out of my rad and putting it in a bucket)!!!

..... then I filled the bucket up with water and poured it down the sewer

Hey, would I be able to use this Sea Foam product on a SR20DET safely? If I used the same process as with a KA24DE (throttle body, gas tank, brake booster, crankcase) Would it damage the turbo charger and it's components?

[NISTECH]

skilla I am with chingon on his recommendations of how to handle the neighbors!! my profile here pretty much explains how i handle the neighbors.

Hey guys just wanted to let you know that this site rocks, and that all the info from here is really helpin me out. My freind did put techron through his air intake and boy did it help alot, i mean he blew more smoke then a dam foest fire and he said it made a hell of a difference. he got a 95 eclips gs, but would the techron be as good as the sea fom or should i just go with the sea fom? any way thanks for all the good info guys. Take it easy.

tell them to go **** themselves and get a life..

lol, I wish I could tell them that!! But, I would prefer not to get evil looks from my neighbours, anytime I see them.

[stutt944]

why not?

start doing what is in your power to do now and **** what they think.

think for yourself. they'll die long before you anyway and you'll inevitably be in charge of your own life.

240sxin: welcome to the boards. i'd say just use seafoam.

[240sxin]

Thanks stutt944, Now i just got to go find some lol, theres not alot here in greeley for auto parts lol, and on top of that it smells like cow ****!!!!! lol any way take it easy guys.

[mikew04]

Does the Berryman B-12 Chemtool have the same effect? Thats all i could find at the local pep boys and autozone. Says it cleans petroleum from the gas tank, fuel injector, carb, and crankcase. Is this ok to run through my TB?

[Nismo_Freak]

Use carb cleaner to clean the throttle body. Don't overspray and allow it to evaporate before you go starting the car.

Advance Auto sells Sea Foam.

[0range_240]

Anybody on here know of any CANADIAN stores that sell this seafoam stuff? I'd really like to get my hands on some, but Ive tried all the local NAPA auto parts stores and Canadian tire, part source, and even a bunch of marine places.. but so far nothing... any help would be immensely appreciated

[eddiec]

anyone have the part numbers to the O2 sensors?

in particular the ngk O2 sensor part number??

[BomexS13]

I have yet to do this.....but i need to:(

[dak2007]

alright this may sound stupid but do you have to change the O2 sensor and if so how much will one run me and how hard is it to change? they sale the sea foam at advance now and i been thinkin about doin this but just couldn't find it anywhere.:spam

[dak2007]

another thing is i still don't know where that brake booster line is. does anyone have a picture?:spam

[Touchdown038]

dak2007: The brake booster is right behind the brake pedal on the other side of the firewall. It's a big circular black plastic thing with a hose running into it. Can't miss it.

[dak2007]

so you put it in the hose that's running into it?...also do you have to change the spark plugs? sorry for the somewhat stupid questions but i realy want to do this :spam

[Touchdown038]

Read the post.... it told you right inside that they will become black and carbon fouled, so yet you do need to.

And yes, although it's easiest to put the Seafoam into a cup and let the engine soak up what's in the cup.

[offtheline]

Hey guys, sorry to bring this thread back from the dead, but it seems as thought in my 96 i have a front heated O2 sensor and a rear heated O2 sensor, does anyone know which I need to change? Or if I need to change them at all? Also, do I need a special tool to replace them?

[wangless]

i had to use a special tool. its basically a deep socket with a side cut open so the wire can go through. i got mine off ebay for like $15 shipped. too bad i cant EFFEN FIND IT NOW !!! what a pos.

[deCksy]

bumping this back from the dead because it is good stuff! just did it to my car... i used up a whole bottle also... it was smoking for about 45min! i have 178k on the engine and guess whatt its carbon free! yes! ^_^ . the car drives alot smoother!

[wangless]

gotta ask you a question now... bc it happened to me after i used seafoam. after putting it in the brake booster it fixed my idle problem, made it sit like a rock at 700rpm... even when warming up when its supposed to be like at 1000rpm. this happen to any other seafoam users ?

[deCksy]

mine starts out at 1k then goes down to around 700 when it warms up

[layzienoy]

i just wanted to ask this question can i use this seafoam cleaner on a SR20DET?or will it damage something in the engine lik the turbo, i believe this question had been asked already in this thread but it was never answered i don't think soo can anyone help me wit this

[Tastyratz]

running this stuff through the booster and fuel should have no effect on the turbo, although as an additive to the oil its questionable that it could effect the lubrication properties of things. i doubt that it will matter that much if you change your oil after a tank of gas, and just dont work the turbo as hard to be safe. i picked up a couple cans of this stuff to run through my car, ill have to see how it goes...

[IlIkEmYz]

Here a good website to look at for a location near you

[Tx-Sx-FS]

just to figure some things out on my 89 157k miled sohc...ive seen that u need to change plugs and wires, oil and filter, add gas..but when someone said o2 sensor...is it manditory to change that? how much would it cost for that? and do i just use 1 can or would i use one in the gas tank and one for the booster? let me know guys

[Touchdown038]

Depends on how clean you wanna get it.
