yea i think i had that done once when i got my oil changed....$65 <<<dumbass here

iceman · 06-14-2006, 06:48 PM

You might have had your injectors cleaned... when they hook up that pressurized bottle and run the car off it, it's well worth $65

drumking1721 · 06-14-2006, 07:24 PM

yea i know it was for the injectors...

Yup, just had the fuel injectors flushed clean through the fuel rails again; & changed the fuel filter.

Time for an oil change soon, too.

Haven't had a chance. Things keep popping up. This week I have my grandfather's funeral services Saturday...

If you guys can get in contact with anyone else in the Bay just give me a week's notice and I'm almost positive I'll be able to make it.

i put 1/2 in the pcv and 1/2 in the gas none in the oil since i had just changed it

SSRacer · 03-22-2008, 12:08 PM

I just put sea foam in through my PCV valve for the first time. Letting it sit so I can smog the neighborhood

Once you start the car again, should I drive it around until it stops smoking, or just let it run in the driveway?

SSRacer · 03-22-2008, 12:35 PM

Never mind, I did both. Revved it in the drivewy for a min or two then took it on the expressway real quick so I could open it up.

Wow what a difference. Didn't get as much smoke as I thought, but man the idle is smoother and pick up is way better. Also put new delco plugs and a new gatorback belt on today.

Plan on putting some in the tank at the next fill up, then doing the oil next time I am close to a change.

ancona46 · 03-23-2008, 07:04 AM

drive it hard to blow out the carbon

AaronGTR · 03-23-2008, 08:53 AM

I did this on my grand prix a little while ago. Did the complete treatment with adding seafoam to the oil, gas, and in the intake. Does seem to drive a little smoother now. I also didn't get as much smoke for as long as I thought it would, but it did smoke a decent amount for about a minute. Biggest problem I had was keeping the engine running with the tube off the intake manifold so I could pour the right amount of the seafoam in (I used a funnel with a rubber hose on the end). It made a TPS fault code show up in the pcm cause it kept revving and stalling on me, but I cleared it. Not sure on the overall results of this stuff 'cause I haven't really kept track of my gas mileage or anything.

SSRacer · 03-23-2008, 09:19 AM

I just poured it in a cup and had the wife keep the revs up while I submerged the PCV valve.
