Oh dear god...

Rule #2 states that I have to be nice to you:
Treat new members with respect. I was new once and had no idea how to use the search function. Lets help them out, thats why we are here. Theres nothing wrong with telling them to search, just be respectful about it.

Therefore I'll point you to Rule #4:
We do not censor language. We have some latitude on this one. But please choose your words wisely. We do not allow cursing in thread titles. No need to talk e-gansta either. This isnt a back alley.

first and most important advice you'll get.

do NOT continue to type in the way you have in the Original Post...

if you want people to be helpful and respectful, type out your post in a way we can read them.

thanks....

Ahhh, the new texting generation. Very, very soon we will be texting our drive thru orders because the younger folks wont be able to communicate.

Sad, very sad.

to answer the OP question- the PM `prvate message` feature is blocked until you have x number of post and time of membership.
See the rules thread--top of the thread list, for details

PM is to direct contact a member with question or comment that doent belong on the open public board
Or to say hey to buddies you make here along the way

Please don't type your posts like text messages. Complete words will reflect better on you and you'll get better responses. Maybe.

if you have an actual question you wanted to ask someone about your car--ask it here

Otherwise I think this thread needs to be closed as its just nonsense by someone who wont type in real words,,its a game, not a real thread

I just put a full can of seafoam in my tank that was a little less than 1/2 full. (Concentrated? idk)

Also picked up this baby:

you did it perfect! seafoam goes in the gas, 1 can to 8 gal = just under half tank

and that pack goes under the seat~

seafoam ratio: Cleaning strength--2 oz per gal fuel
`maitenance` dose at 5000-7500 miles= 1 oz to 1 gal = 1 can to just under a full tank
wont hurt to do half can to 1/2 tank at 7500. throw rest in oil, drive 30 minutes and change oil and filter

more than 2 oz per gal in fuel is not more effective - per seafoam
less than 3/4 oz per gal is also not as effective--per seafoam

I know the can says 1/3 in each place- tank, manifold, oil- but that is marketing bs from 1950 when cars had very small gas tanks~
their own directions using ratios is a different amount, but some is better than none

thru manifold vac port or TB throat opening, 1/2 to 3/4 can is all it will take without stalling,,,thats enough
noobs repeat in a month to finish off the job then good for a year/15

2 `half tank methods` will do everything really well,, plus you need to manually clean the TB air plate with carb cleaner and rag

Will using seafoam in gas tank (two cans at two different times; those being a little below 1/2 gas tank) cause any excessive build up of carbon by TB or IM that I will eventually need to clean up manually?

All threads eventually degrade into seafoam threads.
It's the fourth law of thermodynamics.

CRC makes excellent products including a TB spray cleaner to use on the air plate

seafoam liquifies carbon buildup so it can be blown out,,does not cause carbon buildup~
gas tank method twice works fine to remove crud from tank thru cat

you still need to manually clean the EGR system
