    4th way to use Sea Foam:

    Honestly, I have used Seafoam three times 200 miles before an oil change. This last time I did an oil change, I did not use Seafoam. Instead, I bought an engine flush solution from an auto parts store. I had never done it before, so I simply just followed the directions on the bottle (dump the whole bottle in the crankcase and run the engine for 10 minutes, then change the oil). When I changed the oil, I noticed just how much grit and carbon and other junk was in the oil (not present after using the Seafoam). I love Seafoam as a fuel system and intake cleaner, but I would definitely say that an engine flush is WAY more effective than just using seafoam (and it is also about half the price of a bottle of Seafoam).

      @scottw550 2 роки тому +7

      The problem with doing that is, that there are many small oil passageways in an automotive engine, some of them less than 1/8th of an inch in diameter.
      If you suddenly release all the gunk that has accumulated in your motor these passageways can get clogged and even cause catastrophic engine failure.

      @Racko94 Рік тому +1

      You're actually supposed to add it to a mostly empty tank, and then fill up with gas, per the directions. It doesn't really hurt to have more seafoam, but its meant more to slowly clean the Fuel system than all at once.
      I like to get 2 cans, suck a bit of one through a vacuum like, dump some into the oil, and add the rest of the can (usually less than half) into a gas tank that's about 1/4 to 1/2 full, run until I'm getting low, usually 100-200 miles, then change the oil. I'll then go to the gas station, dump a full can into the tank and fill it up.
      I run full synthetic oil and prefer to change it every 5k miles, but sometimes I let it go towards the 10k mile mark, and I like to give it the full seafoam treatment every 15-20k miles, as well as adding a can once a month to the gas tank. I've had had and sold cars that were still running good at 150k-300k miles. Might be other problems with them, but at least the engine and fuel system were in good shape.
      It is possible, if the engine wasn't taken care of, that the seafoam in the oil can remove some buildup and reveal a small leak.

    The key to keeping the engine as clean as possible after a full seafoaming like this one is to change the oil afterwards. If you’re trying to de-carbon and de sludge and de-lacquer your engine, all that garbage ends up in the oil and filter. A full change and you’re good.

    I love how clean your m3 is (e36?). That is a bit of a dream car of mine. 2 years into my career I had an opportunity to buy a very slightly used E36, or a very slightly used 968. I went with the 968, and I don't regret it. I wish I still had that car. But I also wish I had gotten E36.
    I'm going to look through your videos and see, did you find this car this clean? Or did you go through a restoration process?
    Honestly at this point I would consider buying an E36, but their prices have gotten insane. So I'm actually thinking about getting another 968, and then turning it into a modern monster. It wouldn't be restoration, it would be a sleeper. Looks like an old car, but it's hiding an LT6, lol.
    I raced the 968 back in the day, I got the goodie out of the car. I was working for gillet at the time, they made the exhaust for Porsche, BMW, Audi, BMW basically all the German Auto makes. So I did kind of make use of our prototyping and dyno facilities "after hours."
    Thought about throwing on a turbo, but that was such a different rabbit hole with so many more variables and complexity that I chose to stick with NA. Not to mention the internals weren't designed for that.
    Just thinking about it's making me nostalgic. You should look into a 968. Six-speed, 3L 4-cylinder. Big honkin four. Stock I think it was making about 230 at the crank, a bit under 200 at the wheels. Not much in today's terms. But no electronic nannies to keep you safe other than ABS. But working with the guys in Edenkoben, we got it to 270 at the wheels with simple mods.
    Funny story, we were prototyping the exhaust for the new 996 & the Porsche engineers worked with the edenkoben guys to Frankenstein a 964 with the 996 turbo motor. Roughly 400 hp in a chassis designed to take 250-300 at most. And 964s were known to be squirrelly before you double the hp. Not to mention they hadn't really smoothed out the tune on the engine yet, so all of the power showed up around 4000 rpm & up. We got to take it to Nuremberg for "testing" (don't crash, don't die). Being 25 and all stones no brains I pushed it a bit. Like riding a lion made of jello & teeth. Hang on for dear life & remember always more throttle. Would have been quick if I could have kept it pointing vaguely in the direction I was trying to go.

    Seafoam is old school - use the gumout or similar stuff with PEA (polyetheramine) - it is WAY MORE effective from my humble experience - then use the techroline gas additive Religiously for the next 5,000 miles from Chevron or Texaco.......... good stuff : P. you'll be glad you did.......you can get a case of each = 6 and 6 from Amazon for $100..........sweet.

    The smoke makes you think you’re doing something but it really doesn’t do much of anything but potentially damage your catalytic converter. I’d use it in the gas tank and that’s it. Regular oil changes is what cleans your crankcase. Solvent type oil additives or flushes can be risky for a engine that’s already dirty from lack of maintenance. If too much of that crud comes off at once it can cause major problems.

    if you do use it in oil. do it shortly before an oil change and don't hit high revs with it in the oil. Any liquid you add to oil changes the viscosity and lubricating properties which messes with oil clearance in the engine. Good way to cause premature rod bearing and lifter wear

    Car auction, less bids, better price for you to buy
    In.a car auction, the SOON TO ROLL IN cars are left on the lot with keys in them for lot test drive.
    If you do the direct injection via vacuum line trick & leave the car, you might save money.
    Start, add seafoam, leave the car to clean soak.
    When they start it and roll it into the bay, dealers will see the white smoke as an engine problem and likely won't bid it up.
    They'll think you're an idiot to buy it but you got a better deal on a car with a cleaner engine.

    So after watching this video I got 2 cans and one of them is a spray. Now I have a 14 Subaru Legacy and I was trying to figure out how to get it to all cylinders. Now at the very top there is a tube which I pulled out and it is a vacuum hose cause I can put my finger on it and it was stop sucking in the air but while I was doing that I killed the engine. I don't know if that was good or bad but I turned off the engine and was able to turn it back on later. I had a little trouble with the spray can trying to go through the throttle body. Not sure how to do this safely.

    • @TreatsOnTheStreets
      @TreatsOnTheStreets  6 років тому

      +Mark C either through that vacuum line with the bottle or the throttle body with the spray should work. If you let it suck in too much too quickly with the vacuum hose it will kill the engine. It helps to have someone in the car on the throttle to help hold the rpm a little higher while you do it.
