i have been puttin it in my gas for a while now. a whole can in a full tank of premium.
and before every other oil change i put in a half can in the crankcase, i think? and only did the brake booster line once.

i didnt drive my truck right until premium went to 3.09, and i put a full can in a full tank and i got 23.3mpg (truck in sig \/) bout 80% town driving (town is more open than city, and i live in a small town) i though that was awesome, some threw up the BS flag. but i have done this twice, first time i got 23.1mpg then the 2nd time i got 23.3.

what yall say?

read up on the acetone thing, 2oz per 10gallons of gas? supposed to help gas mileage but long term affects are unknown??

i buy a bottle of seafoam a week. only $5 a can.

heck as high as gas is why not its only $5, from a coulple months ago premium was $2.69 now it is $3.09. thats $7 more for 20 gallons.

my 2 cents

i have done all 3 but seems like it helps in the gas?? ill have to run all of it out and see what im getting, MPG wise.
actually if you pour the whole can in a 26 gallon tank thats not too strong. but i might pour 1.5 or 2 cans in one day??
i dont know
Later
My 2 cents

I used seafoam in my everyday driver(1990 Plymouth Voyager) and that was the best thing I ever did. Its a 3.0 DOHC V6 and it was running like **** and now she runs like a champ. I put some in the gas of my HD and I havent noticed a difference. That stuff really works!!! For 5.99 you cant beat it.
