all this talk of holding the throttle open... all you need to do is pinch the end the of the hose closed partially to reduce the flow of air and then let the vaccumm do the rest by keeping the hose just above the surface of the seafoam and letting it get sucked up with a bit of air...
also there is no need to dump it into another container.. if you are careful you can get the proper amount by just sticking the end of the hose in the top of the can and tipping it slightly...

If you really want to clean your engine use 44k, we sell it at the GM Dealer I work at. They said it does 3 times the cleaning that seafoam does. Its top end, gas additive, and oil additive. It cleans the hell out of anything. Its like $35 for the three though. I'll have to get some and try it out.

That stuff works great, even just added to your oil. I did that, holy crap, my oil was nasty. You can put it in your gas tank too i read. Super stuff for only 6 bucks.

Haven't done it yet, but I have read to use about half a can or a little more and run it for no more than 150 miles before changing the oil.

So you turn the tube around and you pour half the bottle into the valve while the car is running and someone else is revving?
EDIT: I = Fail never mind just finished it and the engine works so much better now. Last edited by gaowners32; 08-24-2008 at 10:11 AM. |
