If Seafoam is a petroleum based product, why would it separate from another petroleum based product, like motor oil? It's not like combining water and oil, that do separate.

 

Viscosity.

 

So if u pour a bottle of 5W20 into a bottle of 20W50, they will remain separated?

"
The most frequently asked question about using Sea Foam is as follows: “After using Sea Foam in my oil, fuel, or through the vacuum line (to clean carbon from the combustion chamber) do I need to change my oil?” The short answer is: No you don’t have to change your oil after using Sea Foam in any application.
When using Sea Foam in your fuel or through the vacuum line for carbon cleaning your oil does not need to be changed. Using Sea Foam in your oil, at 1 ½ ounces per quart, is a safe way to clean a crankcase, free up rings or free up sticky lifters as you drive. Sea Foam is not a chemical engine flush and therefore, it will not damage internal engine components or plug the oil pick up screen. Sea Foam is a pure petroleum blend with no chemical additives and is safe for long term cleaning or short term pre-service cleaning.
Sea Foam is a blend of highly refined additive oils and is compatible with all motor oils including synthetics. It is safe for all internal engine components and will not affect any seals, gaskets or o-rings. Sea Foam cleans oil deposits and varnish in your crankcase by safely/slowly re liquefying the old oil residue so contaminants may flow and be filtered. The longer Sea Foam is in your oil the cleaner your crankcase will become. When adding Sea Foam to clean oil, for long term maintenance cleaning, you must check your oil periodically for color and clarity, when your oil looks dirty change it. Because you added cleaning oil (Sea Foam) to your oil you may have to change oil before the expected service interval.
When adding Sea Foam to dirty oil before an oil change, for best results use 1 ½ ounces per quart of oil at least 100 miles before oil is changed."

 

Thats a whole different scenario.

Ill put some oil and seafoam in a cup later to show you what happens.

 

That would be great. Will it be shaken, not stirred (bad 007 joke, sorry)?

 

 

Ill do Oil into cup of seafoam, seafoam into cup of oil. Than Ill shake one, and stir the other. Pictures of during, before and after.

 

the sheer fact that it is petroleum based is exactly why it WILL mix and not seperate....all petroleum products start with the same base stock= DEAD DINOSAURS

 

The Seafoam website is trying to sell Seafoam though, if they thought you'd believe it, they'd tell you to toss half a can down your throat and it'll cure cancer.

 

Your not taking into account the ratios, Pale Oil is greatly outweighed by Naptha and IPA.

 

......and if u believe that, then as advertised on TV, call the law firm of Dewey, Cheatum & Howe at 1-800-XXX-XXXX. You may be entitled to a substantial sum of money. LOL

 

Sorry to jack my own thread but i just noticed I didnt spell seafoam correctly in the title. Now back to the oil seafoam, dead dinosaurs and velocity. Sorry for the jacking.

 

I wouldn't trust "Bob the Oil guy" over an international company whose website says that their product will not ruin your engine, that's huge for a company to declare, especially today when everyone and their dog wants to sue some company for money. Also... someone said there's bubbles in the oil... what happens when you put black vinegar into clear water and shake it excessively? The vinegar/water solution turns an in-between color. This is because it mixes... the same way seafoam and oil would, and once it's kicked around a lot in the engine it'll probably change the solution's color too...... air bubbles?... I doubt it. yeah sure it might change the color of the oil because it's clear and your oil isn't, after your engine sits it'll dissociate again, and your oil will change color. Why is oil black? because of detergents and **** that pick up carbon deposits (that happen to be black) that sit around in the oil, they're not actually part of the oil. My parents (now retired) are both professional Mechanical engineers and I'm in my third year, majoring in Chemistry and Biology...We all use Seafoam in the crankcase every once in a while. Seafoam is fine to use in engine oil. Don't trust "Bob the oil guy" he's full of garbage.
