Probably the seafoam. How long has it been since you did that?

It should get back to its normal self pretty soon after it clears out all the gunk.

well i did this about 2 weeks ago and is now on the 2nd tank of gas, could it have clogged the cat

Did you change oil after seafoam?

tekin

nope did all the work first then did the seafoam and did not run it in the tank or engine just intake

the crud was probably helping to hold the engine together lol

tekin

well that is fine, but any other suggestions guys, as I know it was done to clear the junk out

tekin

well I never did put it in the crankcase, so that would not come in contact with the oil, it was just injested through the brake booster line slowly

I don't think seafoam itself is anything but good for the running engine, but its cause & effect can endup with a catalytic converter that's been clogged.

Or possibly the plugs weren't gapped correctly, and unable to supply adequate spark.

I've personally never used seafoam, but from everyone I've read of using it always said to change the plugs AFTER using seafoam, not before. Maybe that is part of your problem.

tekin

well is there anyway I can check the cat or a cleaner for it and the previous plugs where good shape just a little white crust

anyone help out here
