The heat soak is done with the spray bottle i will post the link.After driving about 20 miles today i can feel a nice difference in the throttle response and it just runs alot smoother at all rpms. She is going to smoke when first started but goes away pretty quick.
How can that even be a good thing for at TBI or TPI car? That's in other words mean you have a catalytic converter or even 2 that's can get nasty from carbon or oil. I would think twice before I did do that to a newer car. A carburetted car it's a hole other thing.
Play it safe are my suggestions.

I have done it to at least 5 fuel injected engines all of them made a huge difference and never thrown a code but just ran alot better all around.Also i know at least a few of the gm techs at the local chevy dealer they do it all the time on these engines and alot of other injected engines..I cant believe i forgot to do it to the crankcase before my oil change but i will next time.If you have a sticky lifter this stuff is amazing for that.

i used seafoam in my old regal with 225k on it, i thought the fire dept was going to show up. SO MUCH SMOKE. i just did the vac line into the engine intake manifold and the rest went in the gas tank.

I received my new OEM steering wheel from Summit Racing today, and installed it a few minutes ago. It was pretty straight forward - only took about 20 minutes total and was a breeze. I'm so happy with the new one - it's been about 16 years since I laid hands on the original, unused steering wheel, and I can't believe the difference. A little spendy at $215 shipped after tax, but not a bad deal when you consider it comes with new switches and backlights (most of the old ones have burned out, and I wasn't about to try to open them up and replace them myself).

I’ve only heard stories about Seafoam, never tried it. Anybody else with experience?
Yes, our old 97 Saturn was super full of carbon and sludge in the intake. It was drive by cable so I held the throttle open and sprayed a half a can of the Deep Creep into the intake. Then I killed it off with it and used my extended straw to soak the rest of the intake with the remainder. Waited an hour and restarted.
It took “clear flood” to get it to go and then I took it for a ride. Made a HUGE difference. It was a different car after that. Selling it was one of my biggest mistakes vehicle wise.

Last Friday I "fixed" my electrical system. The trouble had started when I installed the efans (months ago) so I assumed that the Hayden controller needed to be replaced/rewired and was draining the battery. Nope, it was just a bad battery. I was sure the battery was only a few months old but it was from April of 19 and still under warranty. Free fix, but had already re-wired the fans.

Today I finally installed my Boost Auto wireless charging pad. I wasn’t planning on getting this since I have wired, rather than wireless CarPlay on my receiver. Well, this pos iPhone, just like my last one, started failing to connect & charge, using the port like it’s supposed to, so I said flock it, and bit the bullet.. easy, and clean install. Happy with it.

Out on the claim
I added a dash mounted phone holder. No more watching the phone bounce to the passenger floorboard as soon as I leave the pavement! I know its not a big deal in the grand scheme of things but sometimes its the little things that can get under the skin. Anyone wanting to know more on it I posted it on the thread I made on the phone mounts See it here
