SeaFoaming!

that'll clean the injectors pretty good.....but you still need to run it thru the intake for the ultimate cleaning.

 

once before on my last truck i took of the air filter and sprayed some in there.
will that help or is that bad?

 

i wouldnt do it that way...............since there is a chance some could possibly come back and mess up the maf sensor. the easiest way is thru the brake booster line.

 

Can someone please show me where the booster line is localed? Picture would be great.... I just picked up a can of seafoam.

2007 DC v6

 

It's the hose that hooks to your brake booster. The thick rubber one with the chinsy clamps.

 

is this it

 

he shoots he scores! yup, that's it.

 

i did mine last summer..worked out pretty sweet. Its reccomended to change out the plugs when your done thou.

 

Somebody should write a DIY guide for this..

My Tacos got 37K on it, should I go ahead and seafoam it? I'm gonna pick up a can soon anyway to do my Moms Sequoia (80K Miles). Might as well do the Taco too

 

ohhh fack.... I had my plugs changed yesturday and i seafoamed 10 min ago :S I'm also at 37k smoked pretty good for about two min...

 

you're fine. it's just a good idea to change out the plugs if they're older, since the seafoam will change them a bit. it shouldn't affect new plugs much at all.

 

sea foaming is great. just be careful not to hydro lock your engine after putting it through a vacuum line. to be safe about it, it's good to hit the starter a few times before starting the engine to make sure there's no fluid resting on top of a piston

 

Another thing that would have been good to know before doing this last night :S I'm going to go seafoam my wifes, moms, and brothers cars today !!! That stuff is awsome, the engine feels so much better.

 

I will be seafoam-ing tomorrow.

 

Has anyone added Seafoam to the crankcase yet? If so did you see a performance difference? How long after you put Seafoam in the crankcase do you leave it in for before changing your oil?

 

Did it to an 03 w/ 130,000 a couple of motnths ago...
1/3 in vacuum line
1/3 in gas tank
1/3 in Crank case
Made a world of difference. we put it all in with about 1/2 tank of gas and drove around to do some errands to burn all the gas. Changed the oil after that. I would say as long as it's changed after 50 miles or there abouts you will be fine.

 

Huh. That sounds like someone I know.

 

So I did this today sea foam and deep creep sea foam in tb, is it normal for the truck to idle higher after? Im thinking that its just buring all of it out right?

 

yeah....run it for a little while, the rpms will settle back to normal.

 

OK, good. I was a little worried, I screwed something up. My TB was so dirty. Ill clean it more often now.
