Seafoam vs. High Miles

Correct! There is a Seafoam aeresol spray, but that's not the right product. The Seafoam in question is in a '50s looking can with a lid that unscrews. I bought a can today at Discount Auto Parts for $6.00.

Rude, what was the problems man? Gotta know details: problems, install procedure, etc.

How much Seafoam did you use and where all did you use it? Need to know how to compare your experience with others.

Some people put varied amounts in the crankcase and intake, but I don't think it matters so much in the tank. I can see where too much in the crankcase could cause issues, especially on a well worn engine.

JUST DID IT!!!

No problems at all. I put 1/2 in the intake using the Brake Booster line and the rest in the tank. Once I put 1/2 in the BB line, I shut it off and waited about 15 minutes. Cranked it up and it idled a bit funny, but spit out a decent amount of smoke. I expected more smoke, but good to know everything is fairly clean already.

I keep my car serviced regularly with oil changes, tune-ups, annual fluid changes, annual fuel injector cleaning, etc. In other words, my car runs pretty good and has been very reliable.

I'll have to wait and see what the benefits are over the next week or so. I've got some long business trips coming up, so that means a good bit of miles.
