Default Gumont Engine Flush???

pep boys offers a engine flush from Gumont. The container says to drain all oil and replace oil filter, then to fill the motor with the flush and let idle for 5 min. The product felt more watered down then motor oil. Anyone ever used it before?

there is a write up on here about using seafoam.. i use that. the write up was done with a b16 turbo.. i had my buddy use it on his jetta, and his check engine light went off and has never come back on, so one would assume it works. the write up even said that it made his turbo spool quicker.. dunno about all that.. search for it, and you should find it.

use seafoam for sure like gsxr1k05, it will do you wonders, and helps with smog testing. gumout dont do much, tried it and didnt make me go faster and or feel any difference, seafoam, you should feel like i did, better acceleration and just feels faster in my opinion.
