couldn't hurt

 

Follow the instructions - but...... a couple of cans...

 

dood.. clean your freaking tb/intake/penlum.. replace the gasket with a an-r. hondata. etc... thats gross

 

wipe all that stuff down reassemble. good to go

 

That's some sick ****, dude. Clean it as best you can before you seafoam it.

 

Are you filling up at Pemex?
Seafoam is awesome. I got a lawn edger started after cleaning with it with Seafoam, it hadn't run in years.

 

I'd pull the mani off and clean it first, then seafoam. Are you running a catch can by any chance? How's your PCV valve? Looks like too much oil vapor is getting sucked in

 

bone stock VX with 230K miles.. never touched the PCV valve, just spark plugs and cap and rotor.. nothing drastic.

but, i think im going to take my chances.. im due for an oil change anyhow, i think im gunna sea foam it, and then change the oil after a nice little run.

 

dude, change the pcv valve, they're cheap. I'm hoping water pump and timing belt wasn't on the "changed" list because they're irrelevant?

hahah.. yeah, i think im going to make a write up soon.. i just got done sea foam'in it.. and i think things are good.. but i wanna get a pic of the oil comming out.. but as of right now.. things look good.

lets see.

sea foam w/ manifold flush (deep creep)
plugs
cap
rotor

and now im thinking about fuel filter and the PCV.

after i change the oil.. maybe later today or tomorrow i'll post it up. but things look good.

(and yes, the waterpump and timming belt were changed on time)

 

well.. i did sea foam it after all... and i created another thread..

if you care to take a look.. here is the link.

my manifold looked exactly the same way... i throwed it in w waterbath and added some engine cleaner, floor cleaner... everything i could find....

worked great

 

yikes.

 

My injectors looked like that too when I pulled them about a week or so ago. B16A2 with 57,000 miles on it. Nasty ****. Didn't know what the hell it was but I see some seafoam in my future. That ****'s nasty.

 

Pull the manifold off and clean it out with carb cleaner. It'll look brand new.

 

i didn't want to buy another intake manifold gasket.

and thats alot of work, the sea foam took like 15 mins.
