It cleans ur injectors and fuel system when poured in the tank, when you suck it in the TB it cleans the valves and intake system. Takes all the carbon and crap that gets stuck in there and flushes it out. (FYI- If you do the intake it will smoke realllllllllllllllllllly bad while you're doing it. Thats ok, it will stop.) They say you can use it in the crankcase as well, but Ive never tried...thats the only way you'd have to change fluids. Supposed to add it, drive 100 miles or so, then change ur oil.
I personally always use it in the tank every 6 months or so, and at least once a year do the intake side. Good luck, its great stuff!

Throttle Body. I have used Seafoam in the crankcase of all of my cars and beat the crap out of them for that 100-200 miles, and it cleaned the motors right out. On the Jeep I just bought, I had a sticky valve, ran Seafoam and now it isn't sticking. It's good stuff.

Yup, pour a full can in the tank, fill it and drive till its on E. Pour some in the oil (the can will tell u how much) and keep track of your mileage...when you get to ur desired number do an oil change. Easy stuff mane.

yeah that would be great. Im just so hesitant about putting something in my engine oil. The gas i can see but the oil worries me. Im worried about the seals i guess.

Ive never seen any pics...I know when I use it in my gas/intake there is a noticeable difference in my idle...lots smoother. As for the crank, Ive never done that because I have the same worries as you. The company says its fine, but everything I know about oil says stuff like that should not be in there...lol...

if you decide to do through the TB, they way i do is i take off the hose from the brake booster and pour it in there. its nice because it sucks it right up no worries about wasting it. good luck man...
