On the subject of additives, I used some Barryman B12 in my gas tank (one can on a full tank) and it really freed up some hp by unclogging my injectors. I would recommend this stuff to anyone with high mileage engines. As for seafoam....Parts Store here i come!

yeah, you don't need to use the brake booster line...I used the one marked "B/R". I had some of that tubing that you use for fish tanks, you know that clear plastic tube stuff.

I poped the cap off of the vac. tree & slide the tubbing over that connection. It's almost a perfect fit. Then I put the other end of the tube into the Seafoam can & let it suck it up. It worked a little better than the funnel because the tube is small so it sucks it slowly. And you have better control of it going in because you can just pull the tube out of the can when you want to stop putting it in.

I don't know about more power, but I could definitely feel a smoother idle. I'm going to run another can when I change the oil this weekend.

"illwood" it states "When Added to Crankcase (Oil) Frees sticky lifters and rings, Increases R.P.M.'s vacuum and compression, Cleans dirty parts, Removes moisture, Cleans PCV valve systems, One pint treats 10 quarts of oil (avg. 1 1/2 ounce per quart)." http://www.seafoamsales.com/motorTuneUpTechGas.htm so yeah you can add it to oil, should work wonders for you.

Looks like I'll be buying a can in the near future.

I had put a full can in the tank, one in the oil, and one in the brake booster line. I havent had a single problem. The car runs unbelievable. I did it at 190k.

I just put a can of the B12 in my tank this weekend because I have been having a bit of a rough idle and I am gonna see what this does for me. I have no codes and did a tune up recently so I am hoping for dirty injectors and that the chem-tool B12 will clear it up. I have also been strongly considering doing a seafoam treatment.

Seafoam Works!

This stuff has been around for years. Its very good in the oil, throttlebody, or a vacuum source to get into the intake and upper cylinders. You will get a lot of smoke, especially if you use the whole can. I only use a 1/4 can for each application. My favorite reason for using it is to decarbon the engine and restore a smooth hesitation free acceleration. I let the car idle for a few minutes after treatment and then go for a quick ride. I use it in all three of my cars. There is a spray version available as well. Use it in between oil changes for best results.

This stuff sounds awesome, I think I may have to give it a try.

Now I'm shooting from the hip here but....

wouldnt that totally clog your catayltic converters is you pump that much "burning oil" through your exhaust system?

The Shape · Jun 30, 2005

I was thinking that to Pete I mean my GT doesn't have cats so no problem there, but my 2.3 does and I Am not sure what effect it would have.

Nice attitude. I meant to put O2 and cat safe.

wildstang87 · Jun 30, 2005

read the can, it says use while running, then turn off car for 5min. and then crank it back up. thats to let it break up the carbon in the combustion chamber. if your using it while its running(probably light throttle to keep it running) all youre doing is burning it. it has to sit in the combustion chamber to work well.

just a word of wisdom, b12 chemtool does work well, but i wouldnt use it often. the main ingredient is tutolene(sp) which will give you very high combustion chamber temps, not to mention is will dry out your cylinders. not saying dont use it, but after you do you should run some 2cycle oil through the tank as well.

wazazzle · Jun 30, 2005

"crazypete" if youre worried about the cats just unbolt the pipe at the header. and run that way, like i said before it will be hella loud though

Do you mean toluene? Which happens to be found in larger quantities in gasoline.

You don't even know who your talking too Hissin50 has helped pretty much everybody on this site (especially me) a lot. Try showing some more respect.

Anyways, I think I'm going to get me a bottle of that stuff and see what it does
