hmmm, I may be wrong, but I have read it is to be used as a fuel additive only for diesel powered vehicles. Just trying to help is all, Maybe someone that knows more than me can confirm or deny.

SEA FOAM Motor Treatment is a 100% pure petroleum product that safely and effectively cleans internal fuel and oil system components, helping your gasoline or diesel engine run cleaner and more efficiently. SEA FOAM is an EPA-registered product, and will not harm engine components, seals, gaskets, catalytic converters or oxygen sensors.

SEA FOAM liquifies gum and varnish deposits or internal engine components, removing carbon deposits, freeing sticky valve lifters and rings curing rough idle, pinging and hesitation problems. By using SEA FOAM to eliminate varnish and carbon buildup, mechanics can more accurately diagnose mechanical problems that may exist. That is why Sea Foam has been so popular with professional mechanics for over 65 years.

As a fuel system additive, Sea Foam will clean fuel injectors, clean carbon, gum and varnish deposits, add lubricity to fuel, stabilize fuel for 2 years and control moisture.

As an oil system additive, Sea Foam controls moisture, gum, varnish and residue deposits.

well, where i buy it you have you buy 3 gallons at a time so i end up buying 6 gallons one time which cost like 136 bucks right around there, and maybe what happens is i only see when customers use it after they don't change their oil for a long time, loosens the sludge, and ends up junk and in the garage me putting an engine in. seems like i've had a few customers say they have ran sea foam just before comimg in.
