Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

    What?


    I can't figure out what you're saying... I think you're asking if you should change your oil after a seafoam. Yes, you should. Many people suggest doing it twice. If you don't want to do that, then don't use seafoam.

      Just wait until you have to change your oil again, that way you aren't wasting fresh oil.

          Since you posted, do you care to help with the problem? Or was flaming in the Beginner Forums your only intention?

            I seafoamed my CB, but only put some into the intake manifold (brake booster) and some into the gas tank, since then I haven't done an oil change (1 month ago), but I highly recommend it. later

              well tee hee since you asked...

              Seafoam works...just follow the EXACT instructions on the can...though I don't remember if it mentioned to change the oil on the can. Either way CHANGE is a must if you pour it into the crankcase...I...um left mine in sitting for weeks without realizing that's what I needed to do. So the end result of THAT was my F22a1 funkin up! Bogging horribly into every gear I shifted into.
              Lesson learned right? lol Nope...I still haven't changed the oil at that time and then poof! I had engine overheating issue.........yea..not fun. Anyway GL Kispirit!


              *Oh yea and if you put too much into the gas tank....it COULD eventually give your O2 sensor a beating. Follow instructions...if you do, you're safe...like sex and a condom!

                  I'm not exactly sure, but I don't think that the O2 sensor will be the point of failure from too much fuel additives. The rubber parts in the fuel system are usually the point of concern, as most additives contain heavy doses of alcohols which play hell on rubber, i.e. fuel injector o-rings. It would still take a lot of alcohol to cause damage though. Most vehicle manufacturers allow up to 10% without worry.

                  And, you should be fine for as far as oil changes go by only treating the intake and fuel system.
