It will only spoke really bad for a minute or two during the drive. After that it looks like your burning oil for ~5 minutes.

one more question. should i buy the cheapest oil and do a oil change, then add the seafoam into the oil. then after 150 miles or so change it with good oil? or it's not necessary
