Best fuel additive for carbon deposit removal?

[timberwoof]

Which fuel additive do you guys think is the best for removing the carbon buildup in the cylinders and around the plugs?

seafoam. use both through the vaccum line and the fuel tank.

+1 Seafoam

also agree with the sea foam, i put it through my truck and had no problems.

 

[IAExpy]

seafoam, seems to be the consensus

i like this stuff called FIC. they say its better for the fuel injectors because it keeps them lubricated and dosent burn up the o rings

I may have to run a thing of seafoam through the truck then. I tried it through the brake booster hose but got no smoke. Unless I did it wrong.

Ive tried sea foam on lots of vehicles sometimes it works some times it doesn't, depends on engine. WOrked great on my motorcycle, not so great on my lumina. worked good on my c10, didnt do anything for my expedition

lol i sprayed for mosquitos and fogged out my complex but nothing noticeable as far as improvements

2 step process, 1 tank treated with RXP followed by 1 tank with Lucas fuel system cleaner. Strictly preventative maintenance.

i use seafoam alot i love that stuff and you can put it in your crank case to flush, through the intake or fuel tank some vehicles you get titan death clouds of smoke other you dont but i have personally seen cars running like trash and after a seafoam they purrrrrrrrrrrrrrr and remember with seafoam you want to induce it as close to the throttlebody as you can get in some locations you may only clean 1 or 2 or even 3 intake runners but the rest will be untouched.

i want to do this...not that confident to do it though

 

[timberwoof]

It isnt all that hard. There are several videos on YouTube that will show you how it's done.

One thing to worry about is that some people have reported fouling their plugs. Not too bad on my 94 Dodge, but I'd hate to have to replace the plugs on this motor just due to a seafoam treatment.

 

[timberwoof]

I need to do it again on the jeep. I will get video this next time.

My Expy runs on sea foam. I run it in the gas, through the vac lines, and every other change of oil. I say its hard to see the difference if you have a lower mileage truck. Mine passed 100k but still drives just as well as it did when we bought it new. Seafoam all the way.
