Does anyone here ever use any additives, like Seafoam? I've heard a few folks around here that swear by that stuff. They either put it in their gas tank or where the oil goes.......

I've used sea foam a few times. Never in the oil though. I always put it in the gas tank or let the truck suck up some through a vacuum line

I was pondering running a can through my gas tank too. I just didn't want to do it if folks here said it isn't good to do......

I use seafoam every time I change my oil. I put it in my vacuum line and gas tank. Then I use the z max oil treatment in my oil. Then i use seafoam trans tune and put that in my tranny fluid as well. Then in between oil changes I use lucas in my gas tank.

I've used the Lucas fuel treatment before. Seems like it and the seafoam are the only two I could tell any difference with. I'm gonna have to pick up some now that I think about it lol

i use some, probably in USA on a different brand.
"mecarun" here in france
one is for engine oil, reducing friction at cold start, and overall breakings of the oil film
one is for gas, gluing the molecules of gas, doing a better burning

mileage is better, on a little city car, i do 80 miles more before re fueling.

i will do it soon fore the big blue :)
