Help after using sea foam...

After I started the car to purge the smoke out, now I have a rough idle and very light misfire at idling. What could it be? Thanks guys.

Give it time, if it was really carboned up then it's going to run like it's misfiring. How long did you run it? Once you start it up and the initial barrage of white smoke attack, go drive around for a while. I'd say cruise around and get on it once in a while for at least 30 minutes.

The light misfire will go away, or should. Seafoam didn't cause it, hell, if it did it's because there was a problem that was fixing a problem. (Impossibly unlikely I'm sure.)

It's been a couple of days now. I'll just sea foam it again. BTW, where did you feed it to? I did it through the IAC fitting, it sucked it right in...
