Thanks Jake

Well I did mine yesterday and it smoked some but not to much. Next time I think I will let it sit in there a little longer. Does it hurt to do it often?
We did my buddies 96 Ford Bronco 5.8: and it smoked pretty good. We also did my dad 01 Silverado with the 5.3L and it smoked like a brother with weed.
All in all it was a good time and something that I think was benificial.

Actually not much smoke could also mean he wasn't putting it in very fast, which is ok. Honestly before I felt a difference, I probably poured 10-15 cans of the stuff through the intake. But that was a work ranger, and we were bored. My lord you never felt such a peppy little 2.5!
Really wouldn't recommend doing that though. We had probably an equal amount in the fuel tank also. End result was, it ruined the spark plugs and the fuel filter, but it actually gained some good power back. Oh and I guess it did detonate like crazy for the first month after that. But that went away.

Just pour a little bit down the throttle body. And I do mean a little. If you pour too much, you'll stall it. Common sense prevails in this case.

Sea Foam is something that's best when used regularly from the start of the engines life (probably every 5000 miles from new) just to keep the valves and intake clean. If you want to clean them off on a 100k mile truck, your best bet would be to take the head(s) off and sandblast/hot tank everything. Fuel system cleaner is great, but only when you've been using it for the engines whole life.
Also, it's hard to record the MPG on that truck considering if it wasn't stopped or just cruising, it was floored. Which is amazing considering that not only did it have 215k miles on it and was the oldest thing we had, but it was THE BEST running thing we had.

Because, we were putting the worlds greatest smoke show to ever come from a 4 cylinder ranger. I think that thing smoked for about a hundred miles after that, probably until the rest of it burnt out of the tank. It was kinda funny though because people would just look at you as you drove down the road.
Also, we had god only knows how many cases of the stuff laying around in the back.
