The Truth About Seafoam Nonspecific Car ForumsThank you. You should have gone for long narrative, as I have Masters in Pharmacy, that's with 11 chemistries included. Anyways, sorry to disappoint. I have no $$ interest in Sea Foam as product, company, or marketing for them. What I do have is this: 1. I was blessed by some guy telling me about this product. 2. I have been using it in almost any ...
Seafoam? In the crankcase? :confused: Normally a pic is worth a thousand words but I don't know about this one. What are the circumstances? IMO nothing wrong with running the proper amount of Seafoam engine treatment directly into the engine's crankcase for a limited duration and the oil and filter are timely replaced afterwards.
I tried the Seafoam Trans Tune and it only prolonged the time during an actual drive before the hard shifting returned. (It used to hard shift in about 5 min, now it is around 10min.) I will install the shift kit as soon as it arrives and report my results from there. Thanks again for all of your help!

I have a GMC Yukon XL 5.3 with a rough Idle only at a stop, it only has 56K on it. Could this be a intake manifold leak? Does anyone know the systoms of an intalke manifold leak. Please help
Another issue then came up - eBay SeaFoam sellers told me they couldn't send it here, once it is a flammable material, thus the post office would block it from international postage. More research over internet finally brought me here, to BlazerLT's AutomotiveForum post on the procedure "Water Cylinder Decarbonizing".
Save a few bucks, try this first; buy a can of seafoam transtune, a can of regular seafoam, and a can of seafoam deepcreep. drain a pint of tranny fluid out of your transmission and replace it with the pint of transtune. this will lubricate the tcc. next, pull the hose off your pcv valve while the car is running and pour some of the regular seafoam into it. pour in slowly "enough to coat the ...
