mine is for sure now cuz i fuggin lit the dammed place on fire it seemed.

 

This stuff sounds pretty good, but I'm not too sure everyone here at my apartment complex will appreciate the huge cloud of smoke.....

 

so ive been reading this entire post..and have a few questions/comments

55k on my engine and im thinking about getting it and using it to clean everything out a bit before i get the oil/spark/timing belt changed

now..pour it into gas....full tank? half tank? quarter tank?

oil....thats pretty much not to hard either...makes sense

now...intake manifold---im still not sure which hose......is that one the right one...and if so ...which side am i pulling it off from? and do i cover it from getting air in?

also...if im the only one cant i just hold down the throttle cable a bit to rev it up so the car dont die?

 

You got the right hose. Both ends of it suck in, I poured into the bottom. When I do this myself I put a screwdriver in the throttle under the hood in the location that you are pointing at so it just stays a little revved up because you don't have enough hands to pour seafoam, hold the funnel and rev the throttle.

 

sweet....well i got about 1000 more miles to my next oil change....but ill def be lettin u guys know how it went...

also... y cant i just pour some into a cup and have the hose suck it out of the cup....is there not enough vaccum to do that???

 

You have to vary how much seafoam you put in there. If you let it suck it in itself I'm sure it will just die. If you pour it in, you add till it stumbles and wait a second. I know if you pour too fast it will die.

 

Seafoam is awesome!!

 

I just sea foamed my car yesterday. I decided to record it for those not sure what to expect.

Great video. At least now I know I won't be doing it anytime soon. Seeing as I live in an apartment and and someone might call the fire department.

 

No one has posted on here in awhile but I will ask anyway.

I seafoamed my 92 Camry with about 130k miles and somewhere in the engine it "ever so slightly" smoked white smoke! The engine didn't make any funny noises or smelled or did anything out of the ordinary. The car run fine after that.

My question is, what would cause the engine to smoke like that?

 

That's how I do it.

No sure what you by "somewhere in the engine".
If you saw smoke coming out of the block itself, maybe seafoam degunked a crack and smoke got out.
Maybe you dropped some seafoam on the hot block and it smoked

 

you really dont want to just pour it into any vacume line. your risking hydrolock if the motor turns off.. hooking it up to the brake booster with a drip is the best way todo it. should take 20 minutes to put all the fluid into the motor. you definately shouldnt just let it suck it all up, you will lose the effect of most of the can.

 

You don't submerge the tube into the cup.
You put the tube in it sideways so one half of the tube picks up seafoam, and the other half lets air in.
I've seafoamed my engine at least 10 times doing it that way.

 

I'm pretty sure I didn't drop any. The brake booster cable on the Camry is at the back of the engine bay on the far right corner. So, I don't think it was that. The smoke started coming out of the, I guess it would be the block, maybe 20-40 seconds after it started sucking up the Seafoam. It only lasted maybe 10-20 seconds max. Just curious as to why it would smoke in the first place.

Thx

 

Your Camry is a 92, I would not be surprise if there was a hairline crack in the block. Seafoam is a very powerful detergent that can remove all the gunk stuck in a crack causing leaks. In your case, Seafoam may have degunked the crack letting smoke out, and the crack got patched right back with whatever was floating in that area.
