let sit for 20 min. then drive very hard until smoke stops coming out. then change oil and spark plugs.

works great, not at all as intimidating as i thought it would be.

going to try seafoam trans-tune next.
OOOh ic, but but do I really need to change spark plug when I just got these sparks 3 month ago? alright supersize, u was right but I still going to have fun seafoaming this weekend and you ain't!! ahhah! lol.

well all the black stuff coming out of your car is carbon build up from your engine, and it will gunk up your spark plugs and o2 sensor as a result of expelling it. you should either put in a spare crappy set of spark plugs before you seafoam, or change them after.

as for the o2 sensor, i got a CEL a few days after seafoaming, but eventually it went away as the carbon burnt off of it.
