Seafoam'd my Evo
I have always done this to every vehicle i have ever owned, even my 4-wheeler. I used the vac hose on the brake booster (thats how ive always done it) and you CAN do it by yourself if you dont drown it. My evo didnt blow out a lot of smoke did but still a good amount. Also put it in the oil, changing it tonight so ill see what comes out
|
what would be purpose of this if you dont mind me asking?
|
there was only one decent thread when i searched about putting it in my car, and it was confusing.
|
so you did it without knowing what it is for? Could you please tell us what is the purpose of doing this? thanks

I know what sea foam is for just had never put it in anything with a turbo
|
It cleans out all the carbon buildup in the engine. Seafoam has been used for years on cars and it usually works very well especially on high mileage motors.

Seafoam'd my evo about 5k ago...brake booster, oil crankcase...changed oil next day.
|
always saw that stuff at checkers but thought against it thinking it didnt work. haha

you are killing your motor. its basically 100% solvent. putting it in the gas is fine, but putting it in the oil and sucking it down a vacuum hose is a horrible idea. its a recipe for bore wash and a rod knock.

So it is better to pour it in the gas tank then?
