Well are you talking about just putting it in the gas, the oil? or running it through the valvetrain like you can with seafoam. I did that to the camaro and it just seem to idle much smoother after but i didn't like the idea of dumping the last part in to make the engine stall which is wat the recommend doing. I just would be worried about hyrdo-locking the engine

I just would be worried about hyrdo-locking the engineI seafoamed my car when i first got it, didnt do a thing, guy before me might have already done it. Id say skip it. My .02

And you would need to dump a whole can in to hydro lock it if not more, my half a can made it spit and sputter and had to run and shut the car off.

I used Seafoam and it worked well, blew a ton a crap out. Never tried Marvel.

pizza dont hate. You should be happy, now ull see the car with pics of the new wheels. Wasnt because of the leak, i just used that as an excuse in my head to stop being a bitch and spend the coin on some nice tires. dont fuck with my mind set, as long as it gets shit done lol

see what i mean! plus talking the wife into letting me spend money when i can say somethings wrong with it always helps. Rubber lands tomorrow, hopefully i can run and get them mounted and thrown on the car.
