You should have cleaned that blackened T'Body until it is like new. the back of the plate you sprayed is worse than the front; sidewall should be cleaned. It will idle like new. also clean the idle air solenoid or replace it!
So, after 3 years, how is the truck running now? Any of the old issues resurface?
Used Techron, its better than seafoam into the carb.
Aah it's only been like 3 years, no big deal
Can you please provide an update? Did seafoam correct an issue caused by deposits or is it more of a Band-aid?
can we just take a moment to acknowledge that he’s still replying to most comments, and liking the comments even after 4 years. that’s called dedication. great respect to this man.
Thanks so much for the nice comment!
@@ProjectFarm Wow! What a difference. I never would have expected such a dramatic change. This is the 4th video of yours that I watched today. Excellent work! Subbed and bell rung.
@@ProjectFarm do you suggest engine restore additive when one or more cylinders have low compression? 5,7L V8 L98 possibly high blow by with 10w40, maybe worn piston rings... complete rebuild would be around 5k$ :(
@@user-hc3dr6mx2c Yes just spray away your problems
Yeah, this channel is great

@Jay'sWorld! really bro? Going down the number of subs amount?
Aye y'all leave Jay alone now yawl year
This dude has my respect to the max. Extremely intellectual and continues to give honest unsponsored reviews for people that are just looking to expand their knowledge base. If I could subscribe ten more times I would. You sir are the GOAT
Thanks so much!
I'd like to point out that when measuring out Seafoamss recommendations for the amount of the product to put into the crankcase that they're "proably" referring to volumetric ounces of liquid and zN0T ounces of weight.I suppose there's the possibility that they could be the same IF ...the can of liquid would weigh 16 net. Oun es.
@@ProjectFarmno sir, we thank you
I realize this vid is old but wanted to add a story. One of my older 4cyl cars at 250k miles had like new compression on three cyls and below spec compression on one. On the advice of a mechanic friend I took out the plug for that cyl and sprayed in seafoam until it puddled on the piston. He said I may have a stuck ring. I did this three times over a week while the car sat, testing compression each time. 4th try. BOOM compression up to match the others and still running today. I changed the oil right after to get that stuff out. Word to the wise... when you run the engine to burn this stuff out do it AT NIGHT so your neighbors dont spaz and call the fire department.
Thanks for sharing.

I did it in the parking lot of auto zone and noticed some Mexicans standing on the sidewalk looking at me then I raised up and you couldn't see their car beside me with the windows down until the smoke cleared.

@@ProjectFarm Never used the Seafoam before, but the Lucas oil additive *dramatically* improved the low oil pressure problem on my father's old Ford Econoline. Love your channel!!!
@@camillecirrus3977 Yes, engine sounds are great!
Yes this channel is a huge money saver. Im going to donate when i have the money. The real world info is almost priceless
Can we get a big thumbs up and applause for this man? 👏 literally testing things so we don't need to
Thanks for the nice comment.
@@ProjectFarm Thank you for the reply! Have a good one!
I disagree completely sir, this stuff needs to be tested and should have been tested a while ago, consumer advocacy is a dying field, they used to have secret shoppers and all that but then he constant allure of hey just give me a good report and I'll pay you what you want, because aren't you just working for money anyway.. this notion has killed the consumer advocacy field. Really RUclips is the only possible source for verifiable data that's not influenced by you know the company that product that they're talking about.. and review sites can make all the claims in the world, but if you don't see what happening how do you even know it happened, this guy right here freaking awesome.
👍🏻👏🏻my favorite channel. ✌🏼
I enjoy all of his videos. I watch many and love the growth of his Chanel
Ive came across your videos a few times and you’re videos are always well done. No absurd music , very to the point, not longer than it needs to be. And you are still replying to folks even after years of the video release. You’ve earned my sub today. Thank you for your valuable information and taking the time out of your day to make these videos.
Thanks! Thanks for watching and subscribing!
Wow, he still responds
@@ProjectFarm thank you so much for all of the neat videos.
@Project Farm you're genuinely helping people, and you've helped me.
"I've come"....
My dad has always sworn my Lucas and seafoam, but when I started watching project farm, this video really made it solid for me.
Thanks for the feedback.
So seeing actual results is better than word of mouth? Wow what insight you must be a genius or something
@@GeorgeTropicanawhat crawled up your arse?
I am a diesel mechanic, I fully believe seafoam and Lucas are great. I had sticking injectors in a 6.0 Ford engine. Fil fuel filter base with seafoam, another can in the tank. No more issues. This guy and his tests are unbiased and very informative. Thanks for posting!
Thanks and you are welcome! Thanks for the feedback.
Yeah, Seafoam and Lucas are good, so is Marvel Mystery oil also.
there's a slight knock from somewhere in the everything with those 6.0's.
I've this stuff on old boat motors and my old work trucks. Love it.
I always fill the filter on my 7.3 IDI with additive when replacing it too.
He is the perfect person doing this as he knows camera and microphone placement replication is important. Love this dude
Thanks for watching! Thank you.
The most impressive part is not JUST the unbiased scientific method tests. It is all of that combined with your excellent video production skills that make all of your videos enjoyable to watch regardless of topic.
Thank you!
Incredible to see how far the videos have come 5 years later. Even back then they were better than the vast majority of videos like this. I’ve been advocating and using these products for years and this video is proof that they work. Thanks again!!
I’ve been keeping a bottle of sea foam in the spare room for years now in case of emergency and shit I am now a proud man
As an old mechanic, I would have never believed you could fix that ticking lifter with products. Thanks. I learn something new every day.
Thanks for sharing! Glad to hear!
I've been using seafoam and Lucas mucus for over 30 years, it's good stuff.
My friend is a mechanic and loves the stuff. He's pretty sharp too.
Powerup DEFINITELY can cure it.
I cannot tell you how much I appreciate older blue collar guys or just older guys in general that aren’t the “the old ways are always the best”. So thank you very much Adam, God Bless you and yours

@@captainamericaamerica8090 You don't have a problem with this guy's channel, you have a problem with capitalism. Yes, he gets paid by views, that's how RUclips works, in case you are just now learning this. This is his second job, and like everyone who applies themselves to their work, he does what he can to maximize his views. The wonderful thing is, he maximizes his view by producing EXCELLENT CONTENT. There is nothing - and I do mean nothing - wrong with a person who produces excellent content making money. In fact, I LOVE the fact that he is making money with his excellent content, because that encourages him to CONTINUE MAKING EXCELLENT CONTENT. Or, did you expect him to just do it out of the kindness of his heart? Making money because you are doing excellent work is not a bad thing, if you think it is, then you have a problem with capitalism, not this content provider.
I respect your dedication to non-biased experimentation and testing across a variety of equipment, engines, fluids, etc. Your curiosity is evident in your videos and attitude. Absolutely love this channel!
Thank you very much!

👍👍👍
That’s impressive! I never would have expected such great results. The engine sounds 100 times better now versus before.
Thanks!
Just gave this treatment to my used chevy express AWD that hit 265k. Immediately enjoying the easier engine turn over and less vibration. Your videos continue to be extremely helpful, thank you!
You are welcome! Thanks for sharing.
I have a 1998 Nissan Altima with 311000 (three hundred and eleven) thousand miles. It wasn't running right, so I added a can of seafoam to the gas. It didn't solve the engine bucking and jerking, so I bought a container of another brand of cleanser that said it would be enough for 25 gallons. I was in the mindset that more was better and added the whole thing to my 14 gallon tank. Now my car barely keeps running and sounds like it's only running on two cylinders. It may not have been the cleanser, but I thought I would ask you if you thought I made have damaged my engine or some other components of the engine, like the catalytic converter, oxygen sensor, noc sensor, fuel injectors and etc?
@@IM1LDSRU2 At 311k niles you might just not want to try these products.
@@IM1LDSRU2 yeah honest truth is 311,000 is very high mileage and many vehicles start to die at this point. These cleaners only clean up carbon from the engine but your engine might have more issues than just carbon build up. Clearing the carbon could've caused a pressure leak somewhere as well which can lead to low compression in the engine which could be your issue. Would the cleaner cause damage? Unlikely. Could it have cleared up a leak somewhere that carbon build up might've plugged? Possibly
@@IM1LDSRU2 I always wondered if the catalytic converter would plug up like happens if you run rich. If you got through all the cleaner, and are back to good fuel, I would test removing the cat if you can.
This just came up in my feed. I have been a huge fan of Project Farm for more than 3 years. What a superior quality channel! You have come along so far since the early times, but your dedication continues to shine through. We are lucky to have you as a great resource for testing products, tools, and garments!
Thanks so much!
I've never been more addicted to a RUclips channel, you're what Consumer Reports could have been if they properly tested products or figured out the internet. Thank you for your brilliant videos, as a prolific DIY'er living in a 1950's cape on a cement slab, I'm constantly doing projects and I swear for every project I do, you have a video for to get the BEST prouct.

Unused....I thought the same thing about "consumers".
The fact you don't take monetary gifts from any companies really has me watching all of your videos. I really love the unbiased reviews, even have seen a few products which I've now replaced. I appreciate your channel
Thank you very much! I plan to always so no to sponsorship offers and offers for free products too.
I wish I had a channel as such. What's my channel going to be about? Altering hearing and cooling schedules on a strict followed policy of corporate compromise? Not even talking pc, or within community guidelines; does anyone want to put stupid nitpicking aside and help people?
But most of us really LIKE monetary gifts from companies that like us!
I've seen this video 3 times in the last 5 years and it's still great, I want to try this as soon as I can get a truck. Thanks for the useful tips and helpful information

It's probably ol' GOMER Havin' a little Fun with Yew.
Wow! The before and after were remarkable. The transformation of this older engine after the use of these products is self evident. Very impressed and frankly surprised. Hope you'll do a follow-up in a year or a reasonable interval and let us know if the engine is still running as sweet as it was in this test. Again, very impressive results and clearly well documented.
It’s neat that someone touches on seafoam, it’s something that we’ve always keep in the garage for any old motors. Also your videos are always fun and interesting, I enjoy them a lot.
Old mechanix tric for Sticking or 🎉🎉. noisy valve lifter a quart of automatic transmission oil on the motor for 100 milles Do the job righ
167,000 miles and it looks like it's been to hell at least 3 times and back.
Thats a working man's truck. The engine needs mounts bad
Haha. I guess you guys have to look my Green Devil 2001 Corolla with 180’000 miles on it. Just put some Cooper Winter Tires and black steel rims and God knows how mean that thing looks. I saw this guy with a brand new Dodge Durango SRT stearin at it yesterday. Lol. By the way I never wash outside of that car, that’s the spirit.
in the Zone I got 267000 miles out of my 1.8 Ltr VW engine no noise not using 1 pint in 10000 miles AND VW do not recommend any of this stuff
That's low mileage on that truck.
@@stevenhorsefield2909 probably just uses it around the farm. I only put 8k miles on my car every year. I never understood why people say driving low miles is bad... if you change your fluids at the severe schedule you will not have problems. Plus it means over time you wont need to buy a car as soon. Save probably 20k over 10 years. Inflation is taking care of the newer vehicles better gas mileage so that is irrelevant.
I've been a huge fan of seafoam for years, I also use it in my mowers and 2 stroke equipment. Every time I mix a can of gas I put a splash of seafoam in with the oil. It's literally the only product I've ever purchased that works better than it claims to. Excellent video
Thanks! Thanks for sharing.
Seafoam is great I use in my truck,lawnmower,weedeater it is amazing
That’s pretty incredible! I’m familiar with the Lucas product I put it in my cars and Trucks. I haven’t tried the sea foam yet but I’ve always heard good things about it. Your video tops any commercial they could possibly make. Thanks for sharing this! That ranger sounded a 100k miles newer by the end of the video. Hope she is still going strong for ya!
Thanks and you are welcome!
It's awesome to see how far Todd has come. Great content, but his newer stuff is pure gold! Really informative entertainment!
Thanks so much!
who's Tod?
Before adding Seafoam, the truck sounds like a smooth running diesel. LOL.😀
lol. Great point!
Yeah, I didn't realize it was regular gasolene until we heard the difference after the Seafoam.
@L E 😲
@@LeonCoretz same, thought it was a diesel at first
Just sounded like a typical ford to me 🤣😂
Wow, sounds like a rebuilt engine! Thank you for such a thorough examination and lengthy test period, great combo of Lucas + Sea Foam. I never woulda thought this.
You are welcome!
He didn't fix anything. The wear and damage from the sticking lifter has been done. This 'repair' is not gonna last.
@@yeagermcbipper9008 the wear is still there- but the sludge causing the sticking is gone, allowing the hydraulic lash adjuster/lifter to do it's job better- which is to cushion the closing of the valve so that you dn't hear the clacking. The sludge and coke throughout the engine is reduced, allowing oil to get where it should go. It doesn't fix anything more than cleaning would- but it saves many neglected motors from the junk yard. The repair is not a repair- more a cleaning, and a lot of items are repaired by cleaning alone.
Todd is always clear & completely understandable. A skilled communicator. Bet he is a super nice fella to actually know.
I am so glad I came upon this YT product tester. Being female, you have no idea how much this helps my life. My engine is acting up and I will be trying the exact same thing you did! Thanks so much!♥️

Out of many videos I’ve watched on RUclips, this was the most calm and analytical without too much extra done. You toggled many points, and it was so easy to follow along. Thanks you for the time put in.
You are welcome!
Excellent
Excellent
Seafoam cleared out the sludge so the lifter could pump up with oil again. I was impressed with that. Great un-biased video.
Thank you!
Wouldn't it be better to open the oil pan, clean the pan, because the sludge will deposit and then it's going to sucked again, and that will clog, the internal oil sucking filter (I don't know the name in English 🤣)... Everyone that does a flush usually opens and clean the oil pan... Correct me if I'm wrong...
@@ThaMigthySnakezord it's not a bad idea to. Just make sure you have a new gasket to put on the pan afterwards
@@SmokyPizza6853 yeah indeed saw to many people putting the same gasket and add extra silicone 😅!
@@ThaMigthySnakezord oil is designed to trap all the deposits within itself so when you change oil it takes it with it.

Stumbled across this vid by accident. Excellent work! Nice not to have annoying music or other such nonsense; just straightforward facts and proof of product claims right there in your face. I've gotten into arguments over the years with so-called experts who claim SeaFoam is nothing but snake oil. My dad, who was an NHRA record holder back in the early 70's, and did all of his own engine and set-ups, swore by this stuff. My real world first-person proof came when I bought an '84 F250 w/6.9 diesel. It was almost 15 years old then and had spent a lot of years sitting in a barn. Everyone said take it to a dealer or mechanic, needs a re-build, etc., etc. Being a cheapskate (LOL) I decided to put my old man's advice to the test. Dumped in a whole can and... WOW! Injectors and motor sounds told the story. What were once rough (really rough) starts, poor throttle response and crappy running became instant starts, crisp responsive throttle and smoooth as butter running - around town and out on the highway. Anyone who says SF is a "trick" is deluded. This stuff really almost is MAGIC in a can. I also have taken to using a few Lucas products over the past decade and their stuff is also spot-on as they claim. Like you suggested just try it first. Could make all the difference between an expensive rebuild... or just a few bucks. I use SeaFoam in ANYTHING that's got an engine: gas, diesel or 2-stroke. Old or new. Thanks for this video. Consider me subbed!
Thanks! Thanks for watching and subscribing!
I LOVE HOW YOU’VE EVOLVED over the years. Amazing jobs sir, keep it up.
Thanks, will do!
Wow I am sold. Thanks for being the Guinea pig on so many products I have been hesitant to try...you are such a big help.
You are so welcome!
I never believed in additives. I watched this video and bought some Seafoam to try out on a 31 yr old barn found Honda motorcycle I was fixing to rebuild. I figured what the heck, I'm going to rebuild/rebore/rering and replace everything anyways. Did like the video. Scared the hell out of myself. Never rebuilt the motor. After initial treatment it would start on 4-10 kicks no problem. 3 months of riding daily on Seafoam treated gas, 2-3 kicks. 6 months later 1-2 kicks. I paid $250 for that bike and just sold it for $2650 and only replaced the front and rear wheel bearings and $30 worth of Seafoam. The guy that bought it tried to kick it over without using the compression release, he couldn't, I never could either. He's like "did you rebuilt the top end?" , me: "Nope, just got it going using Seafoam." . He was shocked, he was like me with my skepticism about additives. I had three cans on hand and gave them to him along with 1/2 a case of Honda motor oil. He immediately dumped a can of Seafoam into his trucks tank. Him and his son drove away with the bike. 10-12 days later he sent me an email praising Seafoam and how his truck starts easily now.
Very impressive results! Thanks for sharing this experience!
Compression release..... on a late 80's Honda?....... You couldn't kick over a late 80's Honda?....... Bullshit!
@Rex Erection It rips up carbon deposits and oil sludge. I use it on my 220k mile '91 Daytona every so often, and drive it HARD for 100-200 miles (heat makes deposits softer). When I drain it out, the oil is super nasty, but it makes the whole engine cleaner.
I first used it in 2011 on a 1976 Honda 360. It hadn't ran for 10 years. I expected big carb problems but Seafoam worked wonders and the carbs cleaned up wonderfully
Seafoam wotks, and if you ever get a headgasket leak try out liquid glass it's kept 3 of my car's running for years after the leaks formed but I had 2 where the leaks were just to big so it won't always work orth a shot though cause fuck taking shit to machine shops
I have watched this video a few times. You have evolved so much since this video. You are probably one of the most trusted RUclipsrs out there. You seem like one of your many of your viewers and you have kept true to your mission and purpose. You are appreciated!

Funny story to add to this. We live in rural Iowa. Our mail gal showed up to deliver a package, she was driving an old jeep. Sounded just like your Ford. Passed along to her your episode and what to do. She thanks me and has wondered what it was and how to treat it. Again great job, appreciate what you do.

Your throttle plate is begging for a toothbrush and a scrub.
Great point! Thank you
There used to be a warning label saying NOT to clean the intake. Is this still true or am I dreaming again...???
Bill Michael probably thinking of the MAF sensor.
...and a can of carb and choke cleaner.
B12 Chemtool will disintegrate the crud on the throttle plate. Seafoam smells like ammonia or Windex to me. I don't remember the ingredients list or the MSDS list for Seafoam.
You deserve every single subscriber you have. Your vidoes are nothing but informative and educational to those of us who are trying to keep our mechanical symphonies in top condition. Greatly appreciate your videos!

Thanks and you are welcome!
a trick i've learned about the Lucas is to put it in first, then pour about half of your first quart of oil in the bottle of lucas and shake it around a bit to get all of it out of the bottle, then cut the bottom off the lucas bottle and use it as a funnel lol
Thank you for this recommendation.
I do the same thing! They make great funnels. I keep the spout with the nipple cover also. Put the funnel in a big zip lock bag to keep it from getting dust and dirt contaminated. That is best with all funnels. In an emergency, or for super light weight for carrying in an aircraft, you can make a great funnel out of a water bottle also by the cutting the bottom off at the angle that's best for the particular engine filler cap.
What is it that makes you laugh out loud about your comment?
Jessa Phillips I do the same thing it's the best way to do it
Jessa, great suggestion-never thought about that! I can tell you that empty quart oil containers with bottom cut out make AWESOME "female-pee STANDING UP" accessories, when you've taken a mixed company of folks out on a serious bird-watching trip WAY OUT in the boonies.
Some people buy cars and never have them serviced because it cost money.They wait until something breaks down and cry when they see the bill. Preventive maintenance is the key!
Great point. I bought this truck a few months before the video. It was in poor shape.
Keep up the good work!
Preach! I wa going to say the same thing lol
Phil THANK YOU!!!
Yep. I've seen mostly women & kids who will spend money and/or effort on keeping their vehicle washed, waxed & detailed............but won't bother with simple, preventative scheduled maintenance of the engine & drivetrain. Their car "looks great" on the outside, but the engine is about shot & their engine oil looks like tar. Total insanity. Dad always said: "Your engine will treat you the way you treat it".......
Back to where it all started. I'm so glad your enthusiasm and dedication have been rewarded. BTW if you zoom out of the before video with the noisy lifters, you will see a mariachi band with maracas.
Thanks!
This was the original video of yours I've watched and it's had me hooked ever since. Thank you of for all the work you do man.
Thanks and you are welcome!
10 million people watching a video about seafoam is honestly kind of insane in my opinion but great work. I have had many people say no to sea foam but my grandpa always stood behind it using it in everything he had I wanted to do my own research to see what it really does and this video really showed it thank you.
Anytime I need to buy anything, I always check out Project Farm's videos before I purchase! Kudos to you and your hard work and helping all your fans and viewers with their purchase decisions!
I want to say thank you for videos. I've binged a few these last few days.
I always appreciate someone just seeing what works and what doesn't by just trying it and seeing what happens on camera.
Thanks! Thanks for sharing.
Been showing you to the guys I work with. They don’t even watch RUclips and they’ve been watching you my guy.
Thanks for sharing the channel!
For these older vehicles it is recommended to also replace the oil pan plug with a magnetic one. Older engine's have more wear and are more vulnerable so adding a magnetic plug can save your engine by trapping metal pieces.
Thanks for the feedback.
The magnet is redundant when you have an oil filter. The filter is capable of separating matter much smaller than metal particles.
@@jetfire245 I fully agree, but Redundancies can only help, not hurt...
@@emceehamma3693 you would be wasting finances on a magnetic drain plug when you could invest in a higher quality oil filter, that again works better. If there are any metal chunks that big that somehow make it through your system, you have a MUCH bigger problem than just filtering oil lol
The premise is that even if you have a fancy magnet, it won't fix the massive problem of metal fragments in your oil, that means somethings falling apart.
@@jetfire245 A magnetic drain plug isn't going to be some massive financial expense, and it is reusable. As well as anything it catches isn't going to end up in the filter, potentially allowing the filter to operate better. On an old truck, if you remove it and see bigger metal chunks, then it's essentially going to alert you that you have a big problem you have to address-no one with half a brain is going to install one with the hopes its going to actually fix anything.. The pros absolutely out weigh the cons here.
You're the Hickok45 of everyday engines!
Fawn Liebowitz? Yay! Another Animal House fan here!

I've used Sea Foam for years and it really works well. These are great videos, broken down nice and easy to follow. He is really good at this stuff. 👍
Thanks!
I love seafoam. Problem for me and my 2 high milage engines is that in the oil it worked too good. As in it broke down my rtv sealant that ended up clogging the oil pick up. Anywho im mechanically inclined and fixed the issues. Love it in the fuel. I use ATF for my oil to clean up before a oil change
I dont even ask for advice anymore at the local Autozone. Instead I give them my advice, which is your RUclips channel. Great job!
Thank you!
Asking for car advice at Auto zone is like asking for hardware advice at home Depot, you will get the opinion of someone who is working for minimum wage.
Justin Kasey They make more than minimum wage, but I see your point. Lol
Jamie May wouldn’t trust advice from anyone at Auto Zone even if my life depended on it. None of their employees are even competent enough to even select the correct motor oil off the self
Jamie May I’m guilty of the same thing. After a couple of years of watching Project Farm’s videos, I am a certified auto technician.
When you first started it sounded like a sewing machine, It does sound smoother.
Thanks for watching!
Great rewatching this old video and seeing how far the channel has come
Thanks!
I just have to say how much I appreciate how in depth you go with all of your testing. I have been blown away by some of the results you have concluded in your many experiments. Keep up the great content!
Thanks, will do!
Years ago I started off on this channel with the video. Seeing your growth and the vast collection of video's you have made since this one, is a great feeling. Keep up the hard work man! Much love and many blessings.
Thanks so much!
Yes sir thanks for what you do. I really enjoy the professionalism in the process you employ in your testing and fairness in product comparison whether it’s tools or products we might buy to help in the maintenance of vehicles or shop equipment.
Thanks and you are welcome!
Love your videos! They are always informative and never obsolete!
Thanks and you are welcome!
_I'm 52 and by the description, it sounds like I need to take a couple of swigs of that Lucas. 0.o_
Best comment on youtube. How does this not have more likes?
Wonder you've lived this long!
Hey, just wanted to thank you for taking the time to do all these tests. Many of us don't have the extra engines or money to buy all the products to test out so we know which ones are the best or even actually WORK so the information you are providing us is pretty invaluable. It would be great if you could do a video showing (definitively) all of the "best of the best" products in a -vs- contest so that we could all see who the number 1 products are in any given category. If I had a million $$ to fund towards real life testing to buy engines and products I would surely throw it your way and let you run with it :-)
Thank you for the feedback
What
I've always been a fan of both products. I've had numerous vehicles. I've used them on. Glad to see this channel has evolved into what it has. It's a true star on RUclips
Thanks!
It’s crazy how much the technology has advanced over the years. I love watching your videos and you help me learn so much and I am grateful you are willing to spend your time doing this stuff and testing while you could be sitting on your bed watching on the tv thanks for what you do!
You are welcome!
@@ProjectFarm I am your biggest fan
This guy is so good in testing stuff its so good for us the consumers !!!! Well done !!!
Thank you very much!
I hope you never stop making these videos and we all appreciate the legitimacy of your videos and the work you put in!
Ol
I like these long in-depth videos a little better once in awhile. Good job watching you for years!
Thanks for the feedback.
Another data point for the sea foam intake product: My GF has a CRV that had a persistent code (and accompanying check engine light) regarding the dynamic intake runner. It is vacuum actuated, and it wouldn't move to the high rpm configuration with just the engine running, but if you disconnected its vacuum hose and applied vacuum manually, it would turn (I verified this by stuffing a USB bore scope down the intake to look at it). Running one can of seafoam through the intake while manually actuating the intake runner adjustment, and it freed right up. Cleared engine codes, and it's been working fine for several thousand miles.
Thanks for sharing.
That sea foam work wonders, Thank you for the video, also Thanks for being so honest with the viewers, an not selling out for the money. You're a great man, keep the videos coming.
You are so welcome! Thanks, will do.
This video brought me to your channel! I love the work you do! Thank you!
Thanks and you are welcome!
This is such a great channel. You are doing very useful and worthwhile work.
Thanks and you are welcome!
I come back and watch this video every few months! Btw I love your content. Any idea when or if you will do a video on the best antifreezes?
Thanks! Thanks for the suggestion.
I put my vote on peak. That's what I've found the best on my 98 f150 v8
Well y'all I don't drive anymore since I'll be 72 in July God 🙏 willing and I live in the Phoenix Arizona area and it very seldom is cold 🥶 enough to worry much about antifreeze
I will 😊 agree 💯% with the 🐺 Man about Peak antifreeze having lived in Oregon for most of my life until I was about 40 years old
But Hey 😊 I don't want it said that I was anti helpful hints and tips for vehicle care
Just realized I watched this vid years ago, I got into his channel recently and then just found this. Love this channel
Thanks so much!
Been following the channel for years. We regularly watch your videos for reference in terms of which product may be better than another for our farm here and there.
Thanks for watching!
I like how this is edited , exciting conclusion !
Thanks!
Pretty impressive. I knew Lucas was an amazing product but I didn't know you could do so much with seafoam. Thanks for sharing, very informative.
Thank you!
Wow. Just wow. I listened to your review and followed your exact steps on my 1988 Chevrolet Caprice 305 small block. My engine is a lot quieter, runs a bit smoother, and more powerful! I can squeal my tires! Never thought that was possible with this 32 year old car.
Thanks for your honest review and bringing a bit of fun into my 88. Seafoam works.
You are welcome! Thanks for sharing.
I'll give it a try! Thanks for the information and demonstration. Merry Christmas!
You are welcome! Merry Christmas!
This is awesome! A fully transparent & in depth video of the effects of sea foam! Excellent work sir, I’ll definitely be hitting the sub and watching more of your content!
Thanks! Thanks for watching and subscribing.
One of the absolute best reviews I’ve ever watched. You took the time to show each step as well as the before and after. The video speaks for itself. Great job!
Thank you!
This is pretty impressive! I always enjoy your videos and you unbiased testing methodology. I may have to try these products on our old 65 Mustang. Thanks for what you do!
You are welcome!
Thank you for what you do sir! Really enjoy watching your videos!
Thanks and you are welcome!
