ive been wanting to put some seafoam in my 2006 screw with 30,000 miles, i was wondering, can i just do 1/2 in my vacuum line and 1/2 in my gas, will that work ? because ive heard if u dont use it in the oil it wont help anything. thanks

I use SeaFoam as a gas stabilizer, but for fuel system cleaning, I prefer something along the lines of a Chevron brand fuel system cleaner with Techron.

I do not put anything in my oil pan but oil. If you use good oil you do not need to add anything to it IMHO.

1/2 a can is good for the vacuum line, but they recommend 1 oz per gallon for gas treatment. I added it with the oil in my old Bronco and didn't have any bad results.

Here's their recommendations:

I think seafoam is one of your better products on the market, it is petroleum based, and it just plain out works, I use it in my vehicles, snowmobile, lawnmowers, boat, and my motorcycle. I usually run a can through each vehicle every month just to keep things clean and running smooth.

No, deepcreep is penetrating lubricant like PB Blaster or WD40.

Go to the link in my post above and click on products.
