Tune Up

ill have to agree with thumper, i seafoamed the nali and got the p0430 code also that would not go away... ended up being the 02 sensors...

But what I want to know regarding code you got is whether you put the seafoam in the oil, vaccum and gas tank? which of the three would you not do if you had the chance to do it again?

Just used this for the first time. Comes with a hose that fits right before the throttle after the air intake hose. Nice thing is that it is atomized before it hits the throttle body and cleans that up nicely. Just have to remove the boot, insert special tube, and reattach boot. I got a nice smokke cloud after 2/3 a bottle.

ha ha ha no no dont sea foam it....... ive been battling a P0430 code for the last month and a half since i did the seafoam treatment...... but i still love the stuff.... i still think its worth it but u could have some issues down the road...

I have seafoamed more then my fair share of times in 4 different vehicles now, never once had any sort of issues, only good things.

fuel filter - standard replacement (special tool needed, but cheap)

I didn't even need a special tool (line wrench/ flare wrench). YMMV though for y'all with salty roads or or ocean breezes.

baby that code just pops up on nali's, I seafoam my hoe about every 3 months now that Im over 100k and never had any problems. FYI if your running RP oil( I run RP everything) Then there is no need to add it to the crank case. I do half thru the vacuum line, other half in the gas tank.

yea Eagle, I think its the Flex Fuel that requires the stupid tool. Its one of those "quick connects". The universal that I bought years ago did not work so I had to buy a specific design just for the fuel filter.

i got the p0420, replaced the sensors and still on so thinkin it did something to my cats

this might just be me... but I think I would rather have funk built up on my o2 sensors then the inside of my motor.

Again, just my .02
