How to Sea Foam a 02 Mitsubishi Lancer

[omarG19100]

@mci2727 never mind u mentioned this =D. by the way good video man. i acully did the seafoam before but no smoke or anything came out, but imma try this spray and see if any difference in this. My car has 180m on it but still runs like new.

@mci2727 this wont release crud residue in the oil right? the other seafoam video. they say change oil after seafoam treatment.

Hey, if you add it to your oil, you HAVE to change the oil after you drive it.. it will take all the carbon and sludge and recirculate it, damaging the engine.

[mci2727]

@Atom1cKitten First, You can't just take the intake off because your car won't run with the intake off. That's why the "fancy straw".

Second, You do not "HAVE to" change the oil after adding it.

SeaFoam clearly states it's not needed unless your oil is either;

A: Already dirty and you add it to it before you change it to clean before you add new.

B: Your oil starts showing signs of carbon dirtying it and it gets to the point that the oil needs to be changed.

@mci2727 OK, the bottle may not state you have to change the oil, but I wouldn't take any chances running that long term with my oil. and yes you CAN start and run a car with the intake off. I have done it many times with many different cars.

[Atom1cKitten]

Couldnt you just take the inatake off and simply spray in in the throttle body? Why all this fancy straw stuff?

hey is it necessary to put that on the gas n oil ? by d way is that just liquid sea foam?

[mci2727]

@36349064 It's not necessary to put it in the gas & oil but it does help.

Yes the spray can is just liquid Sea Foam

Just a quick question, where did you get those cables that are connected to your battery? What are they called? I have the same car.

Hey I have same car a you and I was wondering that when you install new headers with no cat converter like the OEM header. Does the check engine light goes on when you install back the o2 sensor to the new headers?

[mci2727]

@truckbebumpen Yes it does come on, you have to get a anti check engine light (anti fouler for spark plugs will also work).

You may even have to stack 2 of them.

You'll add they to the O2 sensor under the car... to pull the sensor out of the air stream a bit.

I will be doing this on my 2005 Mitsubishi Lancer Ralliart tomorrow... I can't wait to see the results!!

much easier through brake booster

[mci2727]

@tk4227

But there is no real risk at all of hydro-locking your motor doing it this way.

You can hydro-lock it very easily pouring/sucking through a vac line.

Great videos and I was looking at your ignition coils, where did you get those from everyone I talk to say that there are no performence colis for the lancer. Let me know thanks

[mci2727]

@escofidelis They are OBX coils.

I got them off ebay.

Can't seem to find them on there anymore but you can google them and find them.

They say they are performance coils but I didn't really notice anything different.
