I put it in my truck and drove it for 100 miles and did a oil change. I believe it did clean the engine because the oil was jet black when I changed it. But beware, if you are one of these that let the oil go a few thousand more miles than you are supose to, then you run the chance of clogging the pickup strainer with debre from chunks of caked on slug. Just food for thought.

And the possibility of creating a leak you didn't have previously.

To use Seafoam in the oil just pour 1.5 oz Seafoam per quart of crankcase capacity into the oil filler. Drive normally for 100-250 miles, but definitely no more than 250 miles, then change your oil and filter. It will come out really black and dirty. I used it in the crankcase on my Grand Prix and it worked pretty nice.

To all you PA guys, I live in State College, lol.


I seafoamed my truck a few weeks ago, I just did 1/3 of the bottle in my vacuum line and the rest in my gas tank, smoked a lot and I don't think the people at Sheetz liked it.

I always change the oil when it is warm. Warm oil flows better than cold oil. No gloves! All *****!

I just did my moms T4R in 45 mins.
