Well I was a skeptic but I went ahead and did the seafoam. I pulled my brake booster line and poured all contents into a container and let it slowly suck it up. I was reading later somewhere where it said when it's almost completely done, choke the engine out by drowning the hose in the fluid or shutting the car off immediately. Well after all of the contents were gone the car was on for another 10 seconds, Is this going to really matter?

it will not allow any to soak for a few minutes, the way you done it let burn it all up 1st but will not hurt anything.

Nah it won't hurt anything, it just won't get the full soak.

I couldn't even drown mine enough to get it to stall so I had to run and turn it off. My sister's little 1.6L Hyundai drowned easily though haha.

Thanks for the swift replies guys. I went back out to run it and boy there was quite a bit of smoke. Not as much as I thought though. And I went for a drive and did a few pulls and that's when it really came out. I do know the engine is fairly clean and recently rebuilt and i've been keeping up with it so didn't expect much from it. But I do notice a slight improvement in my idle and snappier throttle response.

cool, i need to give my another dose, haven't soaked it since last year. thanks for the reminder

why would you seafoam a recently rebuilt motor if all components were hopefully cleaned when motor was redone??
