Ah, a perfect post, one day premature.  Both informative (I may try the
SeaFoam) and hilarious (the Vette videos).

Thanks,

Volks,

Has anyone tried a engine cleaning product named SeaFoam?  I've been a long
time user and believer in Marvel Mystery Oil but this past weekend I found
myself at a Thortons gas station wanting to buy some injector cleaner to use
with my next fillup.  Taking a pass on the usual fare, I found a can of
SeaFoam on the shelf.  I'd heard of it before and was impressed with its
informative label so I bought it.  Poured in the entire can prior to filling
up.  I wasn't really expecting any noticeable results as the Westy has been
running pretty good.  I just felt it was time for a cleaning.  Well, I must
say I was very impressed almost immediately.  The Idle seemed much smoother,
acceleration much easier and healthy and I swear it was running cooler than
normal.

Today I did a little research on the product.  I thought I would share a few
interesting links with you and ask for opinions on usage or experience with
this product.  I'm impressed and I'm going to pick up some more this
afternoon including their spray lubricant/cleaner.

A video and some interesting posts on a Vette list.
