damn man, nice car! is it an auto or manual? im sure u have been asked this, but y dont u have a grille delete? they look so good.

Great car!
Thanks for the comments. I'm the type that doesn't like to do the same thing as everyone else. Hince the reason I don't have a grill delete. Actually the car originally came without a grill from the previous owner. He had modified a horse on a bracket and painted it green, but I removed it put the full grill on. And also it's a manual.

You need to come out of the cave. It's been around for 50 + years, lol.

where in the hell did you pour it to get all that smoke i poured about 1/2 or 1/3 into the iac valve tube just to flood the back of the valves and such but where did you pour it cause i didn't smoke or nothing
I poured mine through the PCV valve and let it suck it out of the can a little at a time, until almost 1/3 or so was gone, then dumped a little more than a 1/3 directly into the crankcase, and the rest in the gas tank.

Call me crazy, but I just do not trust seafoam. I am not putting anything in my engine that is supposed to clean stuff.

I dunno about seafoam, but genearlly anything that cleans something removes all of the oils and lubrication along with the dirt....

FINALLY!!! Something we can agree on.

I'd never put anything in my engine outside of gasoline & oil.

Well for one, if it wasn't something that actually worked, it would've been pulled from the market a long time ago. Something like this that has been around for over 50 years with proven results is evidentally something that's worthwhile. This stuff has been around since the 1930's and started with marine applications.

I actually hesiated to use it. I guess just the idea of all the smoke sh*it out the exhaust. I'll decide for myself it it helped or hurt the car this weekend. I'll be driving it all over for car shows in and out of town, so we'll see. Speaking of that, I need to get the hell out of here.

But for something that's been around for so long, I figured why not.

I dunno if it works or not, but I don't trust it.

Hell, as long as it has been out, and nobody has done a back to back dyno test to prove any of the results.

I dunno. It MIGHT not hurt anything, but then again it might....

dependending on much "stuff" is in your motor and where you pour the seafoam, is what makes or breaks you in the smoke effect.... It works great on high mileage vehicles.... such as my friends 95 dodge caravan... we smoked out walmart lol!!!
