I didn't buy my motor from hmotorsports I bought it from Tigerjapanese.com, & they provided me with proof that it had 25000 miles when I bought it. Would it hurt the motor if I used sea foam?

You only need seafoam on engines that need it, not one's that don't.

Also for the writeup, just pickup a can and look at it and get all the writeups you could ever need.

Yes they do sell it in Canada. Check out Napa, they recieved it a couple of months ago, or Maybe Canadian Tire?

yeah btw, you shouldn't use it unless you have atleast a couple hundred thousand kilometers. its for older engines with carbon buildup. your 27000 motor hasn't even broke its virginity yet
