How to use Seafoam
Hi Guys,
i read few articals on using seafoam cleans up the engine.
can someone please tell me which brand is good for Maxima 2004.
Oil change was done this week and added Bar's Leaks 1000 Engine Repair - 16 oz.
i added Techron Concentrate Plus Fuel System Cleaner in my gas tank. waiting to see some result.
pinging noise is reduced but still there when car is fully warm up . driving more than 1 hr.
can i use seafoam while these chemicals are still in engine? should i wait for another oil change ? then use seafoam ?
after using seafoam when the oil change should be done ?
which type of oil change should be done ?
should i add seafoam when gas tank is fully empty ? or it can be added after the gas tank is full.
which type of gas is recommended ?

who is "no one"?
define pinging noise
Did you bring the car to a dealership? Did they say that they noticed a problem and didnt find the cause, or that they saw no problem?
Depending on how much the car is worth, it might or might not be worth it to get the engine fixed?
For a sure, a can of fix engine and some seafoam will not fix an engine issue.... just wasting more money.

Dealer not able to find anything. Maybe he isn't experience.
Went to few different machenaic and they telling me to sell it before problem gets worst.
I already spent too much money on this trash can.
They said it require rebuild engine.

Wait 5 minutes then start up and watch the white smoke roll.
