Default seafoaming engine.

the idea of seafoaming an engine is very apealing to me but i'm still kind of intimidated somewhat. won't hydrolock be a problem since you're basically pouring a liquid directly into the intake manifold? has anyone done it with sucess? what are the benefits from it? would i get the same results if i just used it in the gas tank and let it slowly burn of while i drive, or would that just clean the fuel system?

just did this like ten mins ago. I put the seafoam into a small cup and slowly fed it into the vac line, while I kept the revs up with the throttle cable. 1/3 in the vac line, 1/3 in the crankcase, 1/3 in the gas tank. afterwards go out for a spirited run. it will most likely smoke alot so becareful on where you take your spirited run lol

Been using this for alittle while now works well

i've seen people post that there is less carbon buildup if you hit high revs every once in a while. even though i'm just running an LS i shift between 4-6K about half the time i drive it (i'm new to a manual, and i basically just get a kick out of high revs). would Seafoam still be beneficial to a car driven like this with 60k miles? also are there any benefits other than removing carbon buildup?
