I used Seafoam many time before on about 4 different cars.. One was a '88 5.0, and '94 LT1 Trans Am, '94 Lincoln Mark VIII and mine

All were impressed with results.. Good stuff and fun to watch when it smokes!

Seafoam claims you can add it to the oil but I would not. Maybe the gas tank but its main purpose is to be fed in to a vaccum line in to the intake manifold and sucked in to clean the top end..Then once you start the car, it all gets burnt out and smokes alot.
