you didnt rev it hard like that while it was cold did you?

HMUSN · November 29th, 2007, 07:51 PM

you held the petal to the floor for 20 seconds while the car was in neutral/park?

dude, if you held the pedal to the floor for 20 seconds with the car running, it's not the seafoam that fucked your car up...

The proper use of Seafoam is as follows.
First drive the car and get it to normal operatiing temp. Then unhook the brake booster hose and start the car. Then while the car is idling slowly suck the seafoam out wiht the brake booster hose. Once the bottle is empty shut the car off and let it soak for a bit. Approx 10 minutes later start the car and hold at approx 1500 RPMs until all the smoke stops coming out.

why would you hold it to the floor at all in nuetral/park anyway and i would never hold it that long ever....
last time i checked its not good to redline engines especially that long..

tsp_2177 · November 29th, 2007, 07:54 PM

thats why im glad mine has a rev limiter even though i would never do that...

Also revvin the shit out of your car doesnt help with seafoam. To be honest your just buring it quicker than it needs to be burned off. It does not say "rev the shit out of your car" or anything along those lines. Once I put it through I take a "spirited drive getting high in the rpms" to get it into my valves better and such.

Actually your right, it doesn't say that. It says "redline until you hear a loud bang. Call Mechanic. Seafoam Complete." God you people obviously aren't reading the labels how can you attempt to give this guy advice. [/sarcasm]

Onemanzu · November 29th, 2007, 09:47 PM

usually you will want to use this product through the PCV because the brake booster might not send the liquids to all 6 or 8 valves just saying
