well guys i did the sea foam to my truck today, really easy to use just un-hook the vaccum line that is attached to the brake booster, with the engine warm and running just pour it in slowly and the bottle says use about 1/3 of a pint. do that then turn it off for about 5 minutes and then start back up and it will blow smoke out the tail pipe and you have cleaned your engine. WELL, did all that and guess what i only got one puff of smoke and let it run for 10 minutes after that and nothing at all so my engine must not of had anything in it. i really wasnt expecting this, i may just chock this off to that i only your premium gas (93) from chevron, and i run injector cleaners every once in a while. So while i was disappointed in my truck but they happy because their wasnt really anything to clean out i went to my moms 97 camry and man did that think smoke, it smoke for about 10 minutes. That put a smile on my face to see finally a lot of smoke. and my friend was over while i was doing this so we did his 2000 ram 1500 with the 5.2 his smoked for about 4 minutes and then his quit. well i think im done

they all seem to be running better, mine has a better idle, moms car feels like it has some more power in the mid rpm's and my friends truck he said it feel that it is more responsive, so i would consider it all good in the neighborhood, i will post some pics of it being done on mine and my moms
