Default Anyone know anything about Seafoam ???

I know a lot of guys have used this product before so I went and bought a bottle tonight, I just dumped it into the gas tank will this be of any benifit as far as carbon reduction? I know they also say you can use the PVC line to run it through as a concentrate, I had about 7-8 gallons in the tank however, any comments as to which method will work the best?? I would think dumping it into the tank would not be as good but shouldn't it still help? I have 60K on my LS1.

I haven't used the seafoam, did the directions say to dump into tank? I would think it would be more effective for carbon build up if it went directly into the engine, dunno.
I've only used the GM aerosol type. I jacked up the idle a little and sprayed it right down the TB until it was empty.Helped eliminate my KR, bigtime!

I have had buddies suck it in thru a vacuum line.

GM has a top end cleaner too.

Good to clean off carbon buildups which can cause spark knock.
