    First of all if you want any kind of respect, learn how to spell. Second of all you think that your post count on an online forum really matters to anybody? Get your little panties out of a bunch senior and realize that your being a little twat. Good day sir.

    Biggest thing to remember is you can't hurt anything and the upside is huge. Just follow the directions on the bottle. I recommend an oil change couple hundo afterwards too.

    tell us more about your vehicle wisdom.. did you try to apply seafoam to an engine without pistons and see if it grew them as well?

    nothing just gas & go
    Been using seafoam for years works great for me. Motorcycles, lawn mowers , tractors, weedeaters,I always mix some in the last tank of the year & have never had gas gel up. Also Keeps my van with 247 K & the ole jeep with 149 k running smooth. Thanks guys I really enjoyed the pissing match.

    I usually stay out of shit but he is right. If you put it into the vacuum line too fast you can hydrolock your engine. It even says it in the short video on their website.

    Too much for TW to know
    So just some questions for you guys... (Not to the guy who arguing)

    My taco ( 4L V6) has 30 000 KM or around 19 000 miles and I have been running regular octane. I have ran a lot STP injector and fuel cleaner through my truck. Would SeaFoam show any results? My truck idles and power is really good. Is the risk really worth it for me? Thanks guys.

    generally seafoam is used to clean up stuff that builds up over time. I'm not sure you're at high enough milage to gain anything from it imo

    And thank God they do!

    Right, So I just tried Seafoam today after reading about it from this post. I have a 2007 4.0L V6 TRD off road with 53k miles. I did 1/3 in the vacuum hose (Scary!) and the rest in my gas tank. I followed the easy directions on the can and WOW!

    Honestly, I believe everything directly involved is better! I don't know if my mind is playing tricks on me but it feels way smoother with lower idle and way better acceleration.

    I'm hoping that after my gas tank runs the rest of it through I'll continue to notice improvements as I'm sure I will. :) I'll keep yall posted.
