I just seafoamed my 7AFE 5 minutes ago through my PVC line and i didnt notice a thing, my lifters still click louder than ever and the engine still sounds terrible.
Nothing broke or leaked though, and the smoke was hella cool This post has been edited by Redline08: Apr 5, 2007 - 2:08 PM |

Either run it through your oil as well or use good quality oil. -------------------- |

i just added some to my oil last night. the idle rpm and oil pressure went up and valve ticking got quieter. i was actually surprised. just dont leave it in there for too long, because you can see that it really thins the oil out in the motor.

i sea foamed 4 engines today. 2 6th gen celica, my mr2 and a del sol. all did great on them. let the seafoam sit in the engine for about 5 to 10 minutes before running it all the way out. just to help brake the deposits up. well give update after driving tomorrow. worked pretty well from what i can tell

i guess i used the wrong vacuum hose? my engine choked and all and i had to get in the throttle to keep it from dying. but it showed me where my few tiny exhaust leaks are and smoked like hell. i thought i did something wrong. plus it was cold outside. i did it and 200k. it was pretty crazy.

It will stall out if you do not give it gas while having the vac. line disconnetced. You have too keep it up there around 2,500-3k for it not too stall.

im just curious, where did you find seafoam in the GTA?...ive been looking for it. I tryed de-carbonizing my engine using throttle body cleaner, it worked...kinda. I blew out black smoke for about a min, then nothing, and engine felt the same. I really wanna get some and do it on my car aswell as Sarah's coupe.
