Have you used Seafoam yet?

[S14 Wannabe]

Alright tried out this stuff on Sunday. It was a very decent improvement from what I could tell. No hesitation what so ever now. When I press on the gas the car just goes now. I put 1/2 of the can through the break booster line and my engine wanted to die but didn't. What a strong engine I have LOL but really tons of white smoke. I put the other 1/2 in my oil and did the start, idle, start, idle, start directions. Man my oil was pitch black when I changed it. I could tell from just taking off the oil cap and looking in it took alot of gunk out. Some great stuff. My start is still the same though but I am waiting for another 1/2 can that I put into the gas tank to take effect. So far so good. Really the acceleration and smoothness is very noticeable. Even a friend that was in the car asked was the car even on because it was so quite. I definately reccomend this stuff. Now anyone have a secret ingredient for automatic transmission care so my transmission is protected too? LOL.

Where did you get this miracle fluid? I think I am gonna give it a shot!

[S14 Wannabe]

You get it at napa or oreilly's. Also, it did not foul my spark plugs, and I did not have to change my oxygen sensor. It will help out your car rico...

Oh God, another thread about Seafoam....

Go here if for some sad, sick reason you still don't know what Seafoam is.

I told one of my friends about it, and he put it in his 85' BMW, and it made his throttle responce noticeably better he says. he also swears up and down that hes faster than me, when before he did this he wasnt, so i dont know. but i plan on doing it for sure.

I'd love to try Seafoam if I could just find a place that carried it. The Napas around here don't have it and there are no Oreillys in this area.

[AllTurBo]

burntclutch where in south jersey you from? the napa's by me have it. also a lot of marine places carry it. I think it's used to winterize boats and jetski's, or it's at least part of the winterizing process that some marina's offer.

Salem County about 10 minutes from the Delaware Memorial Bridge. I'd love to find this stuff before I get a new O2 sensor ,cat and everything behind it (my exhaust broke off at that little cherry bomb embryo thing, so I have to replace it before I go deaf). Theres at least one marina near here, so I'll check there.

I highly HIGHLY recomend this stuff. If you cant find it anywhere near you, you can order it online, or have someone ship you some, either way get it. Do all three cleaning procedures: oil, intake, injectors. Makes a dramatic difference in older cars, still noticable in newer ones too. Mechanics near me use it before doing diagnostic checks to clear any of those problems and they swear by it. Also, if you have the time, clean your throttle body really good by taking it off and using carb cleaner. Anyway, good luck on finding some.

what if i was to put it in with the turbo? would all the crap coming out coat the turbine wheel or anything? i dont see why but jsut curious. of course im putting in a much newer engine now so might not be neccassary

[nolaws4evr]

the seafoam should never even reach your turbo. All that does is force air in right?? into your intake manifold, which is one of the things it cleans, plus the cylinder heads, walls, and pistons. It will all burn up in there too, only thing coming out exhaust would be a hell of alot of smoke, dont know how it will affect the compressor tho.

[89S13SILVIA]

i have used it is great to use at every oil change being so cheap but if you want a miracle fluid buy a new fuel filter and run bg 44k it is like liquid gold for your motor i have never seen something make a bigger differemce i use it in every car i work on and mine two times a year.

[Structure240sx]

but all the carbon deposits that the seafoam removes and exits out the exhuastd will go through the turbine

[rico05]

No one local carries it, and I tried searching online for some, and all I am able to get is how tos and people telling about how great it is. Where in the heck can I buy some!?!?

[BurntClutch]

Well I could kick myself. The one Napa in the area I DIDN'T check had it. Bought 4 cans of Auto Marine and 1 of the Deep Creep variety.

[nolaws4evr]

rico, try goin up to dallas sometime, im sure you could find it there or houston for sure. If you want to be positive, call some of them up before driving so far.

[BurntClutch]

Just sucked it into the brake booster hose. I could barely get it to start after it was done cooking. They're not kidding about the smoke! Looked like the car was on fire for a few minutes, but it definately runs a lot better now. I think I also found the source of my idle/warm power problems. Forgot to tighten the MAF clamp when I had it off (DOH!).

You can order it online and have it shipped if you can't find it in your local neighborhood stores.

I have a bottle of it, but haven't used it since my 240 is in the shop right now. I've read so much about it that I bought a bottle the day after I bought the car
