Did one the other day and had a guy pull in behind me at a gas station to tell me he thought I had blown my motor. My response- "Really? It's been doing this for the last 60k miles!"

I think I'm due for another one....I'm not a fan of my new neighbors

You ever tried the induction cleaning with water? I tripped my SES with water, but not a hiccup with the Seafoam.

Never tried with water. Done the same way as sea foam?

I watched my rearview- to see the cars braking hard cause they were afraid to go through the huge plume of smoke

You're missing out....you could pretend you're playing "space shuttle." Just let it soak for 30 min, do a countdown from "10," the gun it once you hit "0!" then you'll have your rocket booster trail behind you

I like how originally it was supposed to soak for 10 min and then over the years it has increased to 30, a few more years and it will be a hour? lol

No no. Just drain all the oil out, fill the engine to the top of the valve covers with seafoam, and let it sit over night.

Can't wait till someone does a search and takes this advice. "It's sooooooooo clean!!!"
