Sea Foam

I searched up the threads about this and mostly everbody uses it through the lines & not through the gas tank. I used this on my car twice & always just poured it all in my gas tank. I could feel a little difference, colder ac, runs better at starts, better mpg. But I feel like i'm doing it wrong. So if you guys could feel me in on it, i would highly appreciate it.

when you put in the gas tank like that it only helps with clearing moisture from the gas tank.

if your looking to clean out the cylinder chambers, you got no choice but to put it in the break booster line... and thers going to be more smoke then you can imagine coming out of the exhaust pipes... like imagine a burnout x10.

Can someone provide a pix of where the brake booster is? i wanna do this

Also the best thing to do is 1/3 goes to the gas, 1/3 goes to oil, and 1/3 goes to vac

Cleans out EVERYTHING, done it to my STi and my MCS

Use a vacuum line that goes into the intake manifold and be careful not to hydro-lock the motor. Make sure the motor is hot. Sea Foam Usage Video
