would using seafoam to clean the engine good idea?



thank you

What did the mechanic say that inspected it before you purchased it? fluid and filters are always a good call. has the timing belt /water pump been replaced? transmission serviced? Absolutely no reason to run seafoam unless maybe its never had an oil change or always was fed 89 octane fuel. There is no chip..............and the stock intake is perfectly fine.

timing belt/water pump/spark plugs

at almost 200K miles, I am not sure if you should swap out the 3rd and 4th pressure switches. What do you guys think. Any shuddering going at 3rd gear?
