i just just seafoam my car and ofter 15 min i turn on my engine and i have a check engine light, (pour into brake line). what kind of harm can it do to my newly purchase db8. i have used seafoam lots and lots of times on other cars with great success. On my gsr i didn't even used that much, almost 1/3. hope my car is okay, just reseted my ecu lets see what happens. should i go ahead and put seafoam in the tank?

 

You might need to replace your spark plugs and o2 sensor after using SeaFoam...

it never had happen to me before either. my buddy has my odb11 scanner and he's at work; i haven't seen that scanner in almost two years.

sometimes seafoam can cause more harm then good in some cases. you're engine might of been working properly because it clauging up the little crevestes that was keeping your compression right. and now that it cleaned all that out.. you could start to have problems.

did you check to see if it threw any codes? if so, what were they

 

couldn't called my buddy for my code scanner so i just reset ecu, code went away. i'm still thinking what it was though.

 

it could just be a misfire in one of the cylinder which most likely i'm sure it is... if after resetting the ecu and it staying off then it probably was.
