It's got nearly quarter million miles on it, I'd expect some issues. While that looks bad, get me a measurement on it's thickness.
ThanksThat looks brand new
I've seen the benefits of Seafoam in other cars, so far nothing from HPL.Skip the SeaFoam. Use HPL oil. Not a bit of the cleaner, the oil. And check/change the filter every 1,000 miles.
The owner of HPL just gave you advice.
You would be wise to listen.
The SeaFoam didn’t do anything, either. So, you would be wise not to buy any more of that...I've seen the benefits of Seafoam in other cars, so far nothing from HPL.
I'd be wise to not spend $90-100 worth of oil just to maybe clean something superficial.
Reread the previous post where I said I found improvements in other cars with Seafoam.The SeaFoam didn’t do anything, either. So, you would be wise not to buy any more of that...
If you want to clean it, the clear path has been laid out for you. This time, though, I would follow his instructions a bit more closely.
If it were mine, I might try, but if it runs OK, I can understand not putting more effort into this car.
It was review. But unbiased?Reread the previous post where I said I found improvements in other cars with Seafoam.
I was recommended by this site and users to try this product and it didn't work. Now I'm being informed that I need to spend x3-x4 the amount and try more products. I understand why you're wanting to get defensive since there's a sponsorship. This thread was no attempt to bash HPL but instead simply an unbiased review of the EC.
I recently had the following video shared with me via DM. The discussion was about the credibility of many of these claims and the various inconsistencies, which, if you are an astute listener, will pick-up on when watching the video:
That seems to be the claim, yes. I'd love to see somebody who doesn't have a relationship with BG (this guy obviously does) run the product though.That's pretty impressive for a one time cleaning treatment. I noticed the oil pickup screen wasn't even dirty or blocked, so that stuff must basically liquify the deposits and not break it off in small chunks.
I highly doubt the guy "faked" the video. But yes would be interesting to see a BITOG member run that stuff and report results.That seems to be the claim, yes. I'd love to see somebody who doesn't have a relationship with BG (this guy obviously does) run the product though.
There are some inconsistencies in the video (if you follow the audio), I don't think he faked it, but I also don't think this was unexpected.I highly doubt the guy "faked" the video. But yes would be interesting to see a BITOG member run that stuff and report results.
