Well I have been considering doing it lately, and I know its a cheap and easy way of helping maintain the longevity of our cars. So I am hoping to get thread full of experiences, tips, thoughts, etc.

Nothing scary about it :cool

I have used it on multiple occasions on multiple, different marque cars. I'm awaiting to do it on my E28 simply because I don't have the easy access to a brake booster line (hydraulic system as opposed to vacuum.)

In any case, you might notice a smoother idle, better fuel consumption, etc. The cars I performed a seafoam treatment to were all quite old. VW, BMW, MB etc.

I'm just considering it cause my car is rackin through the miles and I know that there just has to be a decent amount of carbon build up.

do it. make sure to invite a couple friends and smoke up your neighborhood. its pretty easy to use it right, so i wouldnt be worried at all.

When I took my car to get a lot of parts put on, it was just sitting for a while. When I got it back, it would rev up and the idle was just off. Used Seafoam and it cleared it all up, but my car did not smoke very much at all....:shifty

SeaFoam gets special mention on Wikipedia under the definition of Hydrolock... :shifty

must have been the idiots that couldn't follow the 3rd grader instructions on the back of the can.....................................

its safe, just go very slowly....drip.....wait 9-10 secs, drip. Think about how you would sip a stiff mixed drink, like that amount of liquid. Its super easy and as long as your somewhat mechanically inclined ( which i know you are ) you will be fine....... and I would recommend doing it. The only time I wouldn't is if you are having other major issues. Sometimes that carbon build up on older cars is actually sortof acting as a sealant, and removing it can expose some issues. Your cars to new to worry about it.

Just make sure you do it in a spot where people passing by won't think there's a fire and call 911.

it's pretty straight forward. The only people i've heard of it going wrong for are one's that used it wrong. for example, people that let it sit in their car all night.

There is no documented proof (by the pro's) that Seafoam does anything besides leave a trail of smoke from here to next week. Most of what ppl feel is a seat in the pants improvement, sorta lika after you wash and wax your car. It always runs better.
Many pros have gone over SF and found it does nothing besides clean up some carbon.
if you want to try some stuff thats documented to work try Auto-rx.

I'm using ARX right now in 2 of my vehicles and have documented proof of improvement in both MPG and compression.
it's posted in the E36 section.
