DIY: 2002 Acura RSX Type-S SeaFoam Part 1

Seafoamed a 2002 Acura RSX Type-S with 82,000 miles on the engine.

Process:
=Be sure the car is up to operating temperature.
=Disconnect the brake booster line at the brake booster, ensuring that the line is still conneted to the intake manifold.
=Pour 1/3 of the Sea Foam into a cup.
=Slowly allow the hose to suck up the Sea Foam (becareful to not let the engine stall)
=After its all sucked up, put the hose back and shut off the car.
=Wait 15-20 minutes
=Start car up, rev the engine up and down for several minutes to help loosen up the carbon.
=Finally take a spirited 15-20 minute drive to clean out the rest, being sure to keep the revs high to clean out the carbon.
=Your Done!

I let it sit for 15-20 minutes, then started it. You rev it for a few minutes, then just drive around keeping the revs high(spirited driving) until the smoke is gone and stops coming out. the length of time depends on how much carbon build up you have....PS drive at your own risk, and do not exceed the speed limit, its illegal.

@shaundiedrinksdew Ive gotten over 40. look at fuelly . com Im there 2002 rsx-s

[shaundiedrinksdew]

i don't know what you are argueing about but your not getting 40 in a type s, maybe downhill both ways. i get 28 to 30 with light mods and i think that is what it is rated at

@averagejoeusername 40MPG? What are you going 20MPH on the freeway? The best i've gotten was 33MPG

Hookah Lmao :D

[chinhhhhh]

@averagejoeusername First off let me ask you, are you a mechanic?....if you are, why would you even ask that question? I've seen plenty of vehicle with sticky valves you name it intake, exhaust, EGR, EBR, even cats that get so much build up it restricts the air flow causing drive-ability issues.

@NeufNeufUn Hey man, I may be wrong. This just looks like a terrible thing to do. I know a Honda doesn't "need" this to run hundreds of thousands of miles. I'm getting 40MPG in a type s-using just synthetic oil and occasionally FI cleaner.
