@fwynn since there so many experts here leaving comments on ur vid,i might as well say this. u can also use seafoam engine cleaner as mouthwash, just gargle for 30 seconds then spit. if u use the whole can u will have the cleanest mouth ever, plus its minty too!
Obviously everyone must be retarded because even though the carbon smoke is black, its not the only thing coming out of the car. Your revving the gas, seafoam, carbon and other gases out of the car soo obviously its not gonna be pure black. Seafoam really helps your car if you plan to do it right..
if it was carbon the smoke would be black... this seafoam thing is useless if you really want to remove the carbon build in your motor just go on the highway at 140 km/h downshift to the 3rd gear ... and admire the black cloud behind.
They think the smoke is the carbon deposits leaving the engine. If it was only that easy to turn a solid back into a gas and have it exit the tailpipe.
It's amazing how this snake oil is still sold and used by unsuspecting "car guys". I wouldn't put this in my engine, esp. the oil. You don't want to put a solvent where it doesn't belong, you have bearings in there and seals to protect. I still have yet to see anyone take apart the head, take before pictures/vids, put it back together, "sea foam" it, then take it apart and show after pictures/vids.
@gman2000 Uh, cause that's a lot of work. Well, i put it in through the vacuum line on a enterprise rental car i had, 2011 ford focus with 1300 miles, and it smoked just as much as this truck, if not more. Your telling me that car had that much carbon buildup at 1300 miles? No. No way. The smoke you see is the seafoam itself burning off. The only plus to this stuff is it is supposed to help absorb water from the fuel tank if used as an additive.
also, a small amount of seafoam does bleed past the rings into the oil, it is a good idea to change the oil (and to foam the oil too!) at the same time.
The method above will only clean the combustion chamber... if you actually do this without killing the car it will also clean the valves.
also, a small amount of seafoam does bleed past the rings into the oil, it is a good idea to change the oil (and to foam the oil too!) at the same time.
This is not the correct way to seafoam your car. What the vid shows is taking too much soafoam into the engine at once and killing it by flooding the spark plugs. LUCKY it did not hydro-lock.
To properly seafoam use a vacc line from the manifold as shown, but use a smaller line and allow the engine to run the entire time. let the vac line "sip" a bit, and prevent the car from dying. Hydrolock sucks, don't suck large amounts of fluid in the chambers.
Don't need to change your oil unless you put in in your oil. Unless you just need an oil change. Just sayin... Even if you put it in you can ride for about 150 miles before having to change.
@ruel111 Waste your money and risk breaking a conrod/ cracking piston cause its got water and alcohol mix which doesn't compress :). Most people don't realize! Only really good mixed in with fuel to clean injectors/ valves and in weak amounts.
Dudes, I did this treatment 2 hours ago Nov. 1, 2010 on a 1990 Toyota Pick up 22R. All i can say try it. Amazing difference on my baby. Runs stronger/smooth, idles quiet. Before doing any engine work or anything, just try a simple cleaning. See for your self. You wont be disappointed.
@carlos197069 1990 Toyota pickups used the 22RE, not the 22R. the difference is fuel injection, Toyota made this change in 1989(the first year of 5th generation Hilux's)
Pretty dumb to submerge a vacuum hose in liquid and suck a non-compressible liquid into the engine "Until it stalls" , if anything its a slow siphon, not a garden hose into the intake
Yeah I didnt poor any into my oil...i have a 95 VR6 jetta, just half in the tank and half was sucked up using a nipple on the throttle body. I will probably still do an oil change.
pfft....looks like you are simply pouring kerosene into the engine. revving and driving around high rpm after putting kerosene in engine...good way to destroy engine.
@DIENAMICProductions are you fucking serious!??! dude get the FUCK OFF youtube and off of car videos! go drive ur shitty ass pontiac aztec some where else and fall off a cliff you fucking douche!
@sexyboi142 i actually dont drive an aztec thank you... i own 2 cars and partially own 1 2001 V6 mustang.... 2003 infinity g35... and i partially own a 07 300C
i hope u didnt poor it in ur crankcase and rev and drive it like that!!!!!! that shit will thin out ur oil and driving like that with thinned oil u will spin a bearing!!!!!!!
im kinda lost here what is the point of seafoam a car i mean it looks like ya blew a headgasket to me lol to me its just a waste of money can somone give me any heads up wat it dose cheers
what it does is simple.. ur pretty much steaming the shit out of ur engine. which in turn lossens the carbon build ups.. being a auto apprentice theres things to do and not to do.. if the vacum hose sucks up to much at once.. well water doesnt compress so ur engine hydrolics and then ur out a engine.. so just use a little bit at a time.. .. a old hotrod trick is good old H2o.. water works just as well.
Hey i have a 2003 Dodge Intrepid SE and i just picked up a SeaFoam from the store which i believe is used to clean the fuel system. Well my question is that iam planning for long trip shortly to Duluth MN and if i can pour the whole of Seafoam completely into my GAS TANK before i fill it up and start the road ?? Please suggest...
@muhizon Its not for your gas tank so no you dont want to pour it into your gas tank. I sugguest for long trip, Have an oil change, check your tire pressure and top of your gas fillup with one of those synthetic gas cleaners. ($4.00 in any local gas station)
@likess shut up moron! you have to use air pressure to release the carbon from the valves. (Reving the enginge) Or running it through high RPMS to let the air flow.. Shut up learn what hes doing then you can speak again.
Warning: It does say on the Sea Foam manufacturers website that you should add the seafoam in a regulated way. You are not supposed to put the vaccum hose into it. Obviously it didn't hurt this car and probably wouldn't hurt others. But something to consider.
I don't believe much in this seafoam shit, maybe it cleans up carbon but probably fucks your engine... A better way to get carbon out of the engine is to floor the shit out of it some day of the week.
this stuff gave me an instant 5hp increase maybe more!! its much more responsive now...but i just hope that i didnt permanetly damage any sensors...i only did this because smog is due and i barely passed last time..i hope my cat is o.k., i did an immediate oil change after.
Warning!! i just tried this procedure but used the brake booster line on my Camaro, only used a third can and it only took less than a couple minutes to pour in. stopped car and waited about ten to fifteen minutes... started up Fanstactic!! BUT, i had a check engine light on,got out the obdII and it said maf sensor, and was listed an O2 sensor..cleaned up maf with contact cleaner and that cleared the Fault, but for the O2.. i had to drive 50 miles before it would reset them I/M monitors.
@axlerodder it's just your engine being dumb cause it thinks there's something wrong. anything you do to mess with the mixture or engine in general will make the CEL come on. hell even putting a new stereo in my car did.
Looking to buy a car soon, SC400 or mustang GT, like the 400 better, only thing is, its now at least 10 years old, up to 20 years old. I know I know the reliability of 400 will be better than a GT, but, parts, while can be had today, its less and less, and in 5 years or so? even if i rebuild the engine/tranny, its all those other parts, 500 for this censor, 250 for that thingy, that worries me. share anyone?
nnnnooooooooo ..... you do it before your oil change, think seafoam as soap or detergeant to your engine it mix with your old oil and make it really thin, then you change your oil to new oil, if you leave seafoam in you engine for a long time , your are going to damage your engine, bi time
@mx6ndfrspd and the Jap sc300 came out in 2 engines.... 1991-1996 1JZGTE Twin turbo and 1996+ came out with a 1JZGTE single turbo "VVTi" very torque at lower rpm.
Because it can/will break lose carbon deposites off various parts of your engines and land them in other places of your engine you wouldnt want them to end up. Seafoam is the kinda thing where one guy swears by it, and the other guy fucks up his engine.
@1969MustangMACH1 HHHmmmm ok buddy thanks, sounds like you just changed my mine cause im the guy that it would throw a rod trough the side of my block. i can't see how this wount dammage or cloge the cat .....or something worse.
does anyone know if you need to do an oil change after you use seafoam THROUGH THE BRAKE BOOSTER VACUUM LINE? i know you have to do one shortly after you add it to engine oil or air intake but i'm not so sure about the brake booster vac line.
No. Unless you added it to your oil, there is no reason to do an oil change. The seafoam will be sucked into the intake manifold and then burned off by the combustion chamber. never coming into contact with the oil.
right on thanks dude. i just did it about an hour ago and added it through the pcv vacuum line. worked like a charm! smoked like a mofo (a little bit more than the sc in this vid). and it's good to know that i don't need to do another oil change considering i just did one this past weekend.
hey man how did your car perform after you added the sea foam on the brake booster line? i was thinking of doing it thru there considering i just got an oil change yesterday :(
Just to tell you guys your not supposed to let it stall out. Instructions from the can sitting here in front of me.
"SLOWLY induce 1/3 pint direct into fuel line, vacuum or air intake system, which feeds all cylinders. IMPORTANT: make sure system feed all cylinders and if in doubt, contact a certified technician. Turn ignition off. Restart engine after 5 minutes."
If you search for seafoam the company themselves have realesed a how too video and they say to stall the engine. This ensures that the seafoem gets everywhere.
Yeah your not suppose to stall the engine, your suppose to sip it up little by little trust me I worked in a shop and did this to probably over 100 different cars.
wow u shouldnt suck it up real fast like that or let ur engine stall you can hydro lock your engine like that. next time suck it up slowly untill the engine starts to stumble but dont let it stall out.
flooding an engine with water is bad because water is virtually incompressible, petroleum distillates (seafoam) are much more compressible. plus that engine has a capacity of 4 liters, even if he pored the whole can (less than half a liter) into the engine he wouldn't be able to seize it up.
no fluid is compressible. water, engine oil, hydraulic fluid, seafoam, atf, coolant, doesn't matter. and half a liter could indeed damage the engine- each cylinder's half a liter, at the BOTTOM of the stroke. it's about a tenth of that at the top, plus the combustion chamber volume. not much room left there. . . . . . . .
sry i was wrong about the compressability part. But like you said each cylinder is .5 liters, and none of them are all sealed at the same time, plus that little bottle is distributed fairly evenly across all 8 cylinders, so a tiny bit over 2 oz per cylinder, assuming you can instantly fill each cylinder at once, and some of the stuff is burned off, hence the white smoke.
yeah it says to let it stall out, then let it sit, so its as full as it can be with the carbon eating goodness of seafoam, then start it up, it burns off
Cleans carbon build up off intake/exhaust valves and out of the combustion chamber, intake manifold. Put it in your gas tank, it cleans the fuel system out better than any Fuel injection cleaner out there. Put in your oil for 50 miles or so it loosens stuck rings, valve lifters etc. (BUT CHANGE IT AFTER 50 MILES! NO LONGER THAN 500 or it will cause damage)
you guys are all faggots if u do this to your car. Who the hell wants a shit load of smoke coming out of there exhaust? Get some real power under your hood and get some flames coming out of there. Not some gay ass smoke
I think the high RPMs may be overkill though. Seafoam will burn it's way out of there sooner or later. No need to get speeding tickets or blow the engine trying to burn out the Seafoam.
It is mainly just dissolved carbon deposits getting thrown out the pipes. Cat converters shouldn't be affected by this at all. Leaded gas however would do some damage.
I'd be more concerned with o2 sensors before the cats.
But then again seafoam hasn't done anything but good for mine so far...
ALLRIGHT A KISS CONCERT! (:>)

seafoam also isnt for cars with 75,000 plus miles....unless you have been using it regularly before.
1969MustangMACH1 2 years ago
why
drippinblood28 2 years ago
Because it can/will break lose carbon deposites off various parts of your engines and land them in other places of your engine you wouldnt want them to end up. Seafoam is the kinda thing where one guy swears by it, and the other guy fucks up his engine.

does anyone know if you need to do an oil change after you use seafoam THROUGH THE BRAKE BOOSTER VACUUM LINE? i know you have to do one shortly after you add it to engine oil or air intake but i'm not so sure about the brake booster vac line.
zac41189 2 years ago
No. Unless you added it to your oil, there is no reason to do an oil change. The seafoam will be sucked into the intake manifold and then burned off by the combustion chamber. never coming into contact with the oil.
mattmiller6977 2 years ago
right on thanks dude. i just did it about an hour ago and added it through the pcv vacuum line. worked like a charm! smoked like a mofo (a little bit more than the sc in this vid). and it's good to know that i don't need to do another oil change considering i just did one this past weekend.
zac41189 2 years ago
yeah no prob. You should try doing it about every 3,000-5,000 miles (if you can afford it) because one seafoaming wont clean all the crap out.
mattmiller6977 2 years ago
hey man how did your car perform after you added the sea foam on the brake booster line? i was thinking of doing it thru there considering i just got an oil change yesterday :(

urkingod 2 years ago
Just to tell you guys your not supposed to let it stall out. Instructions from the can sitting here in front of me.
"SLOWLY induce 1/3 pint direct into fuel line, vacuum or air intake system, which feeds all cylinders. IMPORTANT: make sure system feed all cylinders and if in doubt, contact a certified technician. Turn ignition off. Restart engine after 5 minutes."
whitemj8 2 years ago
If you search for seafoam the company themselves have realesed a how too video and they say to stall the engine. This ensures that the seafoem gets everywhere.
saabg 2 years ago
Yeah your not suppose to stall the engine, your suppose to sip it up little by little trust me I worked in a shop and did this to probably over 100 different cars.

damitzmike 2 years ago
You're supposed to stall it out, it's even in the instructions to do so.
unchainedbass 2 years ago
flooding an engine with water is bad because water is virtually incompressible, petroleum distillates (seafoam) are much more compressible. plus that engine has a capacity of 4 liters, even if he pored the whole can (less than half a liter) into the engine he wouldn't be able to seize it up.
pballer2005 2 years ago
no fluid is compressible. water, engine oil, hydraulic fluid, seafoam, atf, coolant, doesn't matter. and half a liter could indeed damage the engine- each cylinder's half a liter, at the BOTTOM of the stroke. it's about a tenth of that at the top, plus the combustion chamber volume. not much room left there. . . . . . . .
kev04092 2 years ago
sry i was wrong about the compressability part. But like you said each cylinder is .5 liters, and none of them are all sealed at the same time, plus that little bottle is distributed fairly evenly across all 8 cylinders, so a tiny bit over 2 oz per cylinder, assuming you can instantly fill each cylinder at once, and some of the stuff is burned off, hence the white smoke.
pballer2005 2 years ago
yeah it says to let it stall out, then let it sit, so its as full as it can be with the carbon eating goodness of seafoam, then start it up, it burns off

noob question: what does seafoam do?
jdang 2 years ago 9
Cleans carbon build up off intake/exhaust valves and out of the combustion chamber, intake manifold. Put it in your gas tank, it cleans the fuel system out better than any Fuel injection cleaner out there. Put in your oil for 50 miles or so it loosens stuck rings, valve lifters etc. (BUT CHANGE IT AFTER 50 MILES! NO LONGER THAN 500 or it will cause damage)

Dean5629 2 years ago
I think the high RPMs may be overkill though. Seafoam will burn it's way out of there sooner or later. No need to get speeding tickets or blow the engine trying to burn out the Seafoam.

4B11T 2 years ago
Its supposed to be good for it, and clean it out some.
rudolphna54 2 years ago
It is mainly just dissolved carbon deposits getting thrown out the pipes. Cat converters shouldn't be affected by this at all. Leaded gas however would do some damage.
I'd be more concerned with o2 sensors before the cats.
But then again seafoam hasn't done anything but good for mine so far...
