Default Seafoam Story

Okay so I just put in tire bottle of CT phone through a vacuum line in my 1990 2.3 Ranger, it billowed a lot of smoke, it was so awesome to take it screaming down the highway to burn the seafoam off I got a lot of looks. After it burned off I have already noticed an increase in throttle response and it seems to have more power throughout the rpm band. It idles lower and it idles smoother also it makes less noise in general. My truck has 159,000 miles on it so I guess it needed it, just wanted to report saying that the results were wonderful. I will re post in about a week to tell you if I see any gas mileage increase, right now I am getting 19 miles to the gallon.

Did you mean entire?
What's (a) CT phone?
The beginning of the 1st sentence makes NO SENSE while the rest of the post appears typed by someone else.

I am glad this post got a few people to laugh that's what it was intended for, and to let people know that seafoam works.

When used as directed seafoam can clean dirty injectors, clean carbon deposits from intake valves and out of the combustion chamber, and even remove sludge build up inside of the crankcase, as well as lubricate the entire fuel system.
