TexasQuest Posted September 2, 2013 Report Share Posted September 2, 2013 Used it on the daily driver I had a few years ago. Blew all the crap out of the intake and valves out of the tailpipe in a huge cloud of smoke. Ran a lot better afterwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TexasQuest Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 Yep, but you got to regulate it. Don't just start pouring it in or the motor will choke and die. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vbrad511 Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 Probably need to put a longer hose on the PCV's vacuum line. NOT on the PCV valve, but the line that normally attaches to it. Feed the other end into the Seafoam. Keep the hose pinched, only opening it to let a bit of liquid through. You may want another body there to feather the throttle while you're doing it. Don't let it take too much or the car'll choke and die. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeMeyerhoff Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 I also suggest doing it in the rain... less chance of po'ing the neighbors or somebody calling the fire department. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ucw458 Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 (edited) Take some plastic hose for fishtank air pumps and stick it into the PCV hose. It's small and easy to pinch. Plus it's clear so you can see it going in. If you have the parts laying around you can use an air valve for a fishtank to regulate the flow of seafoam. Open the valve till you get a slightly higher idle from the vac leak then put the hose into the seafoam can.

Shelby Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 the lower vauum port on the fender side of the intake will work just as well as the pcv port and already is a smaller size add some to the gas tank to help stabilze the gas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BC_99 Posted September 4, 2013 Report Share Posted September 4, 2013 Could I add it to my gas tank to clean the crap out of my in take pickup? Man if you are picking up as much trash from your tank as you keep posting about, you need to drop the tank, unhook the fuel lines from everything and clean it all from back to front and install new filters. That trash is just going to end up continually clogging your filters and hurting your engine. BC_99 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D3UC3S Posted September 4, 2013 Report Share Posted September 4, 2013 Ya I took the inspection plate off today and apparently it has been a problem before. Don't think a regular cleaning is gonna take care of it. I am going to try some chemistry on it. Salt water, negatively charged steel rod, positively charged tank. Rust "should" come out. Now I just need to borrow a DC battery charger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vbrad511 Posted September 4, 2013 Report Share Posted September 4, 2013 Save yourself the chemical burns and a trip to the ER, and take the tank to a radiator shop and have them clean it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
