seafoam, seafoam, seafoam, seafoam

what the hell is sea foam, I have been hearing a lot about this seafoam stuff on these forums, but I cant find it anywhere I have an 81 toyota pickup with 350,000 miles on the 22r so I took some automatic transmission fluid (because I heard of putting that in my gas to clean the top engen and valves), my dad told me that, so I dumped some down my carb (it smoked like all hell) then I dumped some marvel mystery oil down there (it smoked like all hell again) then I drownded it with the mystery oil till it died (smoke was bellowing from the carb then it spit a ton of black tar looking stuff all over everywere then it died I waited 15 minutes then ran it like a bastard (now it runs smoother and starts easyier) is seafoam auto trany fluid in a different bottle, I want you people to tell me what you think

Just another cleaner/de-sludger product for the carb or EFI system.

Re: seafoam, seafoam, seafoam, seafoam

why buy seafoam when a quart of auto trany fluid that costs 1 dollar will probably do the same thing I dont know if it was the mystery oil or the auto trany fluid that made my truck run 10 times better but one of them did

Word of mouth. It's proven itself with other people I know when nothing else worked. There's a lot of cleaners out there, that one works.
