seafoam

[SwiftCB7]

is there a DIY for seafoam??? my car smokes bad when i hit 4k plus the ca has 230xxx miles on her.

that's not going to help and it would probably make things worse, you need to find out whats causing the smoke

you can still seafoam i did....

just dont put it in the crankcase, just 1/2 in the gas tank and 1/2 in the brake booster line. I did it at 223,XXX and my car smokes a little over 4000 rpm and still I cant figure out why it wont redline, oh well.

If there isn't much wrong, don't do it,


It sure as hell won't fix oil burning, for that you need new seals and or rings

Someone said in a previous post - seafoam can clean up the oil and carbon deposits that are preventing further fluid leaks, like grooves in the cylinders, etc..

Might be time for a swap!

if it smokes under load it is the rings going out.

yup!

seafoam will only make the oil burning WORST ( why..because its desolving the deposits thats HELPING it not smoke that much )

you only use seafoam to clean the fuel lines...intake manifold..and etc...when you have a accelleration issue ( not related to ignition or fuel but rather mechanical due from dirty or clogged EGR ports or gunked up ringlands )

seafoam is good shit...but if you're smoking....its either valve seals..or piston rings are done! ( rebuild or swap time )
