My buddy has ranted and raved about this product so I tried it...
OK...here is a list of things I had going on in my car before I used Seafoam.
1. Idle was not too steady. not too bad...but not great
2. Car started odd when sitting for a while
3. At startup it would make a weird relatively loud noise for about 2 seconds
4. Seemed like rpms were having tough time rising when reving in neutral.
5. While idling, you could feel a little "jolt" from the engine...very light though.
Here is the results after using seafoam once...its going on to day 2 now.
1. idle is a hell of a lot better if not perfect!
2. Starts A LOT QUICKER. engine would pump 3-4 times to start. now 1 and its on
3. The weird noise I had...well… I haven’t heard it at all yet...maybe that’s fixed.. this noise happened every time I started engine cold.. haven’t heard it yet!
4. rpms from what I see from the gauge I don’t' think changed. But engine feels like its reving easier (could be in my head - but I think its better)
5. Still got the jolts. But hardly ever… I think its normal on our engine anyway...you can barely feel it
What I did ...
-(Besides scaring myself to death thinking i damaged something) i used about 200mils of seafoam for engine internals thru pvc line. (it smoked like a mofo)
- Poured about another 150-200 mils into the crankcase
I'm planning on getting another bottle and dump some in the gas tank as I don’t' have enough left (very little left). I would also like to get some more going thru the pcv hose on my next oil change...and leave it at that.
Hope this info was helpful
LIGGY
p.s -- overall, engine runs smoother too
