When I use it, I will put a full bottle in the gas tank (full of gas of course), depending on my oil, if it is a little below full, I will put a full bottle in the crankcase (run it for a few days then change the oil!), and I put a full bottle through the brake booster vacuum line. (I iuse a funnel in the end of the hose and pour a little in at a time) When you put it through the vauum line, just pour enough at a time to let it bog (don't let it die), and keep doing until an amount is left in the bottle to let it die with that amount being poured in. Let the car sit for about 5 or 10 minutes (to let the Seafoam soak in), and then start it up and drive it around (if you have a safe area to do so); if not let it sit where it's parked (but not inside a garage) and you will be amazed at the smoke,a result of the carbon and gunk being burnt out.

Great stuff, Seafoam is. I use it in a car about twice a year.
$9.99 a bottle x3 for each car, but I have felt the difference in the car running better, smoother.
I Have been thinking of doing this to my car and I have heard a lot of theories and ways to do it but yours makes most sense, and since you say you felt the difference im willing to take your word on it and try it! Thanks!


I did feel a difference in the smoothness, and MAYBE power, but I don't have evidence of power gains. Just reinforcing that I felt better run quality and smoothness.
Im not too worried about power gains im just trying to preserve a stock 40 year old engine as long as possible :lol: And if it runs better and smoother than hopefully my mileage will increase. Il keep my fingers crossed!

Yes..take the end from the booster, and I put a funnel in there, and slowly add the Seafoam as described earlier.
