So I heard of seafoam and apparently it can clean injectors and the intake manifold if you do it properly. Has anyone tried this? Thanks.
 






Yeah it works really well in the manifold. The way you clean the injectors is you add it into the gas tank, you can also add it into the oil to clean lifters/valves, and the way you clean the manifold is by pulling off a vacuum line, and sucking up seafoam in the line. If you do this your car will spit out gratuitous amounts of smoke for a a few minutes, that's the deposits all being burned off and cleaned out from the manifold, combustion chamber etc.

I've had great experiences with it I really like it.
 






Why would any with a 2011 explorer want to do anything like that and void warranty. If you dont let your vehicle gas tank get to empty and go to good gas stations you should not have any issues..!
 






Seafoam

Using Seafoam will not void your warranty.

I have used this stuff for many years in my outboard motors and motorcycles, but have not used it in my trucks. It does clean carbon from engine parts and also can be used as a gasoline stabilizer like Stabil. To clean the injectors in my trucks and my scoot, I use Berryman's B12 Chemtool if needed. With today's gasoline mixes, injectors go a lot longer before they need cleaning if you stay away from poor quality fuel.
