I've been reading (here, and on other forums our posters have linked to) about Seafoam, and yesterday I saw it for sale at O'Reilly's. Questions:
1) My '03 Buick, 48K, appears to be well-maintained. The previous owner drove it about 11K a year, so he probably got some highway time in, not just grocery runs and the like. The car gets fine mileage for a beast its size. Would there be any reason, preventative maintenance or otherwise, for me to run it?
2) If I were going to do the intake method, I've read, the PCV valve intake would be a good place. I recall changing the PCV valve on this car back in September, and there didn't seem to be a hose connected to it. Is there one on the 3.8 GM engine? If not, what else could I use?
3) Anybody have Check Engine Lights come on, or a destroyed O2 sensor, or anything like that?
4) Did the stuff really have a lasting effect on mpg and/or power?
