it was funny one time my friend poured in sea foam in to brake booster line while it was not running and it hydro locked the motor and bent a rod so then it was time for a rebuild.
calling bs...the directions on can say to pour into brake booster killing the motor then continue to pour the remaining contents.
yeah i dont really believe that either i poured it into my line with the motor off half a can and i started her up and was fine the directions tell your pour it in with the motor on then kill it after poured in and start it up agian in 15 min alowing the sea foam to desolve all the carbon off everything

i am not lieing i was there when he did it the shop that helped him rebuild it said that it just so happened that a valve was open and it poured in the cyl. and when he went to strat it it jumped one time then would not move so later that day we pulled out the spark plugs and part of the sea foam poured out and they sprayed starter fliud in the cylander and it finally would run but it sounded like it was about to fly apart. So when they tore it down there wasa bent rod.
So no i did not lie and it is not bs
