i wanna add a can of seafoam into my gas tank of my j30 with 110k miles and it says to use the whole can so im guessing they mean when your tank is nearly empty put the seafoam in first and then fill up?

That's how I did it with the Chevron Fuel System Cleaner. Just as long as you're filling the rest of the tank to dilute the Seafoam I think you're ok.

Seafoam consists of nothing but pale oil, isopropyl alcohol, and naptha;http://www.montanajacks.com/msds/seafoam-msds.pdfNone of which is good for injectors or spark plugs but the quanties are so low it probably won't do much harm.

Lots of smoke to confuse the public.

A product with detergents would be more effective like: Redline, BG, etc.Always read the contents label and look up MSDS for products.

Search product name + msds

I'm a firm believer in Redline SL1I never used BG44k , almost bought some from Joe but then I read they changed the Formula.

Q45Tech knows the chemical Im sure.He's a Walking Infiniti Dictionary !!
