I think he said in another post or maybe on .org that he dumped it all in the crank case.

In that case, it won't smoke at all.

ok well I just seafoamed my car. and well, it didnt smoke at all. and from reading other posts on here it sounds like its supposed to smoke. or is that only in some cases? i added the whole bottle into the crankcase.
yeah this is what he said on .org. I guess he thought it would smoke too if he added it to the oil.

lol yea. i thought it was some how supposed to get through the rings (expecially since they are a little worned out) but guess not. my next seafoam will take place within the air intake. i was just very very hesitant about trying that.

Whenever I did mine, I used a vacuum line to apply it
