Like the old thread stated, if your motor is held up by carbon and sludge then the seafoam is going to remove those contents and your motor will develop leaks (internally).

i used it on my all stock 127k d16y7 motor barely gave out any smoke only like 5 puffs at the beginning. put it in crankcase, oil, and gas tank!

did flip an engine code but i reset it and then changed oil and everything was ok afterwards. car definitely idles a lot lower now, you can't even tell its running when sitting inside of it
