Another Seafoam Video

I know everyone's done it but i just can't help to film it and put it on youtube.

here's the first seafoam i did since the engine swap. During the engine swap a lot of parts were cleaned but we could tell that there's some gunk inside and since everything else was in good order, I had no worried about seafoam not being good for the car.


here's the video. i started revving a lil after 2 minute mark...there were quite a bit of smoke after 1 minute mark lol



hopefully I'll get to do a real driving video with some help.

They are manufacturer approved and tested for use by dealers - unlike Seafoam (naptha oil and isopropyl alcohol mostly) which is sold by a distillates sales distribution company. The dealer approved products are also cheaper and have better chemical cleaning properties than Seafoam.
Dealer approved may also = less effective though, methinks.

Anyone tried these other products?

plenty of carbon in there to get out as for other cleaning agents...not sure- but they are all fairly similar.

even simply spraying water into your combustion chamber (i.e. water injection) will do a lot of cleaning and lave the combustion chambers sparkling clean



and cody - we'll go do some drive-by videos, etc in the new year!
