so i did the half through the brake booster and now im just waiting for 10 min or so before i go and start her up again and as it states on the seafoam homepage "drive aggressively, but not illegally." And the next time i fill up my tank ill pour it in the tank

Never thought about putting it in the oil . Does it kinda work on the clean out the build up then change the oil theory ?
so after running it through i havent noticed any drastic changes to throttle response or power, however my brakes seem to be a little more responsive (idk how maybe its just my imagination since nothing in the brake lines them selves were affected) and in the next week or so ill see if my MPG changed at all (hopefully for the better if it does change because 13 MPG on a STOCK ride sucks)

Seafoam thins out oil. Do note. If your jeep is running fine don't use sea foam! Works great for older cars that need a good clean.Originally Posted by mud_digger

Id run some in the oil, then take out injecters and let them soak in seafoam while u are changing the oil.
So my idle had smoothed out considerably (I didn't realize how erratic it was until it was gone) and I've noticed (maybe its just wishful fantasies) a moderate power increase. No obvious change in mpg though.
So after 5 months my idle is still good and my mpg has increased slightly. Also there seems to have been a slight power increase (or restore) all in all I'm satisfied with the results still after 5 months.

Was your cherokee running fine before you put the foam in or was it running bad and that prompted you to do it?
cause mines running fine but I still want to put a can in the tank, it cant hurt right?

TB is a little more helpful than a vac line. The way I do it is through the IAC so it clean that out as well as the TB, intake, and engine.Originally Posted by The_ocho
yeah you can use it for a tb cleaner. soak your tb in it or soak your injectors.. or suck it through the tb tho it would be the same as sucking through the vac line
