how do i go about using sea foam with my 289?

i heard i just dump it down my carb? but how much at a time, etc?

 

Step 1: Open can.
Step 2: Pour1/3 of contents in can into carb.
Step 3: Do Step 2 slowly so as to NOT stall engine.
Step 4: Pour 1/3 of contents of can into oil.
Step 5: Pour 1/3 of contents of can into gas tank.
Step 6: Look in can, itshould be empty.

Easy as 1, 2, 3.

 

do i need a full tank of gas? and i read somewhere that i'm supposed to change my oil after i sea foam but i just changed it like a month ago, is that true?

thanks for the reply

 

A full fuel load yes......treat a full load. As for the oil....put in the 1/3 can and run it for the remainder of your normal oil change cycle. You dont have to retreat your oil after that unless you want to.

 

ok thanks man!

 

What is the sea foam? I have never heard of it.

 

Sea Foam is an oil/fuel additive. It frees sticky lifters. It helps to eliminate moisture in the oil and fuel. It can cure pinging, rough idle, stalling,hesitation, E.D,stickly PCV valves, hives,run on,injector problems (would that go along with the E.D.?), and post nasal drip. Its really good stuff. It really is a very good additive that can cure a multitude of engine porblems.

 

Completely petroleum-based multi-function substance. You can use it as top end cleaner, fuel additive/stabilizer, crankcase cleaner, diesel stabilizer, penetrating fluid, throttble body cleaner,and they have a separate product for power steering conditioner/flush. Unlike many other products, it doesn't contain harsh chemicals which are bad for the environment and often bad for seals (ie. Chemtool)

As for pouring it down the carb, I'd actually recommend slowly pouring it down a vacuum line to get a little better dispersal in the air stream. The brake power booster line or pcv linewould beideal for this.

Be forewarned, you'll get a LOT of smoke out the tailpipe(s) as you're pouring it down the intake, and you'll probably have to drive it around the block before it stops smoking completely.

 

Its a used car sells mans best friend another good one is rislone engine treatment

 

So would it help with a lifter that is starting to make noise at start up?
