Sea Foamed the ML430

After I let it run for about 45 minutes, I drained the oil and got a good bit of crap out. After the change, the new oil is still honey colored.

Re: Sea Foamed the ML430

I'm assuming you put it in the crank case and not the intake and gas tank?

Crankcase. But it is also very useful in the fuel. I actually put a can in the ML320 fuel tank. It does a fabulous job cleaning out the crap in your engine, though.

Re: Sea Foamed the ML430

So you put a can in the crankcase and a can in the fuel tank?

I think when I did it, I put three quarters of a can in the intake, and a quarter in the crank case. I didn't feel like going back to the auto store and picking up another can so I just had to make do with what I had.

Runs pretty well after putting it through though doesn't it? My favorite part is probably all the smoke coming out of the exhaust from doing the intake method and then the hard driving you have to do after putting it in the crankcase and before changing the oil.
