I am familiar with seafoam. What all is it used for?
It doesn't sound like it's too late. Just look around and change your fluids and filters and clean everything out
Seafoam basically eats away at carbon deposits that accumulate in your engine and clog it up. They can accumulate on pistons, in the intake manifold, clog up the EGR valve, basically anywhere that exhaust gas will travel. So everywhere inside your engine. If used properly it eats this away. If used improperly (too often), it'll kill your catalytic converter. I use it every 30k miles when I change my NGK V-Power plugs. Always change your spark plugs after you use it because it does mean stuff to them, too.
