hello, I sea foamed my MO last week and let me tell you that I m very happy with the results.
I bought 2 bottles of sea foam, 1 went straight to the gas tank right before refilling it,
I used a third of the 2nd bottle for the oil and another third for the intake.

I used this hose which by passes the throttle body sensor.

remove the small clamp, the house will be sucking the air
make sure someone helps you to rev the engine up at around 2000 rpm
and slowly pour a third of the bottle. let it set for 15 mins,
start the car and rev it up or drive it like it was stolen.
this cleans carbon gum and varnish deposits from pistons
and intake valves while providing upper cylinder lubrication.

If you want to do the oil just add a third to the oil,
drive it for about 30 mins then change the oil,
oil is going to look darker than normal, mine looked kind of funny,
as it cleaned all the lifters, rings etc.

I noticed a big performance difference after doing these procedures,
my MO is back to life, feels lighter, smoother acceleration, quiter.
This Product is awesome

if you any questions visit the seafoam web http://www.seafoamsales.com/how-to-u...treatment.html

Did this today to my 03 MO with about 95K on it. Did get some white smoke after adding it on in the vacuum. We will see how it works. Also added it to the oil then did an oil change. My MO was about 2 quarts low on oil! And i have added about a quart or 2 quarts over the last 4-5 months probably. Going to have to start watching it closely.

Remember that TIME between adding quarts is meaningless. Keep a record book and track MILEAGE between adding quarts. That's what matters.

When my 03 got past 70,000 miles, it started drinking a quart of oil every 2-3,000 miles.

No leaks, no weird smoke, just guzzling oil.

Years ago when your car was low on oil it would turn on the oil light. Not anymore. By the time your oil light would come on, your pan would be bone dry.

Your safest bet is to check it every fill up.

Nothing has changed from years ago. Remember, the oil light is tripped by a low-pressure condition when the engine is operating. That means the pump is not receiving enough oil to pressurize the oil circuit. Regardless of then or now, when the light comes on you don't have enough oil to safely operate the engine, especially at high RPMs.

Engine oil is the life-blood of all internal combustion engines. I always wonder why more car manufacturers don't utilize oil level monitors. It would be easy to locate a simple fluid-height measuring device in the corner of the oil pan adjacent to the oil pick-up. Just prior to the starter engaging the oil level could be recorded by the ECU and displayed if it was below a certain threshold. Of course if you parked on Lombard Street it would not be an accurate reading, but for the vast majority of us who park on level ground it would be very helpful.
