Help!!!
today i was asked by my girlfriends father if i could sea foam his accord because he heard it was a great product. so i did. i was putting in half the bottle thru the brake booster line (car running obviously) when he tells me to put more so i do, after all his car right? lol. well after i was done put in about 3/4 of the bottle thru the brake booster line very slowly, i turned it off and let it sit for 15 minutes. then i start it and give it some gas and blows out a lot of white smoke.then i take it for a test drive and i immediately noticed that their was a poping noise coming from the engine. it sounded like a back fire.. kinda. i kept driving it for about another 1/4 to half mile and it stopped. i kept driving it and it would no longer make that noise no matter what. it would only make the notice upon acceleration from a dead stop or when you stepped on the gas. i was thinking it was prolly just excess sea foam combusting when its not supposed too or something.. hence the back firing noise. Any ideas? the car is a 2009 honda accord with a 2.4l vtec. (i know its an accord not a civic im just trying to find some answers.. hence my name on this lol)

The smoke is definitely normal, but it's usually recommended to put 1/3rd in the crank case, 1/3rd in the vacuum hose from the brake booster, and 1/3rd in the gas tank.
The popping... I'd have to hear it to have any idea.
