Title: SEAFOAM Motor Treatment
Post by: mikeswrangler on February 13, 2007, 10:41:07 PM: I have not used this yet, but for those who have. Did you like it? I heard it cleans everything out of your system. For those who dont know what seafoam is you can check it out here; http://www.seafoamsales.com/motorTuneUp.htm

My work sells it and I wanted to try it out. From what I have heard your truck/jeep/car will smoke like a bastard afterwards burning the crap out. Let me know your reviews good or bad. Thanks!

its worth the three bucks if your bored and feel like making smoke come out of your jeep i guess

Post by: mikeswrangler on February 14, 2007, 07:03:21 PM: I did it today while at work. I was a little upset at the lack of smoke. I wanted to see it pouring out smoke. The idle is much better than before, thats all I really noticed. But I was paying more attention to not having windshield wipers today when driving in the rain than how the motor was performig.

i have heard, but have no personal experience, that if you put it in your engine oil with a high mileage motor you run the risk of developing leaks, putting it down the intake shouldnt be an issue

yeah, i hadnt really planned on it. my jeep has 196k on it, and still purrs at 800rpm idling with no little burps for vibrations.
