Sea Foam?
 
Just wonder has anyone used Sea Foam on their SVX engine and gas tank? How is this thing doing with SVX's?

SSSVX 07-08-2006 08:07 PM

Just do a search and got some answers. Shld've done it first...:o


But the Sea Foam only works with engine oil and gas? Could we use sea foam in the tranny fluid, power steering fluid and radiator? :rolleyes:

sea foam is god. ran that **** thru my sr20 right after i installed the thing. it had a bit of valve ticking before, went right away. annoying to do, but works well.

you can get diffrent results i have people come in all time time with a tick in the engine and every time they ask for it to be sea foamed instead of diainosed and repaired it never works

I watched a guy 'Sea Foam' his XT6 right before he competed in an autocross. Now I'm too scared of the stuff to even look into what it's supposed to do.

I use seafoam in the same fashion as GM Top End Cleaner... good stuff.

The XT6? Yes - before and after the Sea Foam. :)

Something tells me you're about to say you met the guy at the Dragon or something similar.

Hehe, yeah... That is Jim "Moodybluesr" from XT6.net. His car's name is Ruby Sue if you want to freak him out with the amount of personal info you know about him and his car :D :D

I've always had good results. It gets my recommendation.

Which particular vacuum hose do you use on the svx. I had alot of trouble keeping the car from stalling when I pulled a hose that fed the intake well. Not stalling from the seafoam, but stalling from the vacuum loss when I'd pull the hose.

Perhaps, in order to get a good result also has to use it properly.


I asked this was thinking of making my yellow svx engine running better. It doesn't really have any problem...just thinking if I could clean the engine inside and make it run better, why not.
But I'm gonna try the sea foam on my mx-3 V6 on the next oil change...on the mx-3 forum, the sea foam has like more than 95% success rate to make the V6 runs better and quieter. :)

Is there a How-To for SeaFoam on the SVX lying anywhere?
