Fuel Additives to clean MAF\Fuel system

[rlpjw1959]

Does anyone know of a good product ? Is there such a product? I keep reading about Sea Foam. If there was something that I could run through my fuel system to "clean" things up that would be Great..

So what is the best? Does this product work?

Thanks

Yes.

One of the great things about Seafoam is that it's simply a super-refined petroleum product, and it can be used in your air intake system, fuel and oil, and doesn't have any crazy chemicals in it.

It's also a lot of fun, as your engine will smoke like hell when you use it.

make sure if you use a lot of it in your gas tank at one time "like a whole bottle" you are prepaired to replace your fuel filter, clogged mine up bad!

Yup SEAFOAM
the car i race is a rotary engine RX7 the carbin build up has been known to stick the apex seal shut and make no compression, i have used seafoam to unstick that seal before many of times it use to cost me a rebuild now its just a can of seafoam into the carb.

As he said get a couple fuel filters, its also handy to open the exhaust so you dont clog the muffler or cat if you have it on there.

RTFM :cowboy:

The instructions on the bottle state to use only 1/3 in the tank, with the other 2/3 split between the oil and a vacuum hose.

Seafoam through a vac line coming from the brake booster to the intake manifold. It actually made a seat-of-the-pants difference in mine.

Did that myself... It's interesting that the instructions say to slowly drink it in, then pour to kill then engine and let it sit... Every time I try it, I can't kill the damn engine... 22RE is too tough =/
