i have been using SeaFoam for 42 years and here is how i use it
i put 8 oz in my oil at oil change and 16 oz in my gas on the next tank after oil change
if you havent used it before, put a can in every fill up for at least 3 fill ups
then
i am now using TC W3 now in my gas at 1 ounce to 5 gallons of gas.

I did seafoam on my last vehicle a 2003 Hyundai Elantra GT 2.0L and it worked very well, lol smoked like crazy as I expected it would, tho we never put any in the gas tank.

i just seafoam'd my moms minivan...it feels way smoother...it has 213k miles on it...but it still runs like new...i put it on a 5 gas machine to see what kind of emissions it putting out...and they are very low....everything withing spec
i'd think long and hard before i ever did that to a vehicle again. Remember, the fuel pump is in there, and not only expensive, but a bastard to replace...
Also, when you do this, do you disconnect your cat?

disconnect the cat...umm...u relize its welded from factory to the cobalts downpipe right? and on top of that...i dont run a cat...although putting one back on is on my to do list, and only bc i liked my exhaust tone better with the cat still on....and putting seafoam in the gas tank doesnt cause any problems...its in the intructions...im probably going to just remove my manifold and clean it up...wont do that ti'll later though
