Can you put it in the oil? Used it in the gas after the precat clogged and stuffed my flex pipe at 75 mph. Had more fun getting the exhaust off in a commuter lot than I would have had at work that day.

Don't run you car long with more than a 1/4 can in your crankcase (oil). Don't pour too fast in your booster (or other vacuum line), you could hydrolock. Gas? Pour away.

Figured someone should chime in with the dangers. If it's your first time, watch a few YouTube videos first. Seaford is great BUT you can do some serious damage if you just pour away.

An 8-10"(or more I guess if you want) piece of 3/8" rubber hose is the best thing to suck it up with through the booster line.
