Didn't know putting the oil cap back on would quiet down the engine so much. What a big difference.

Changing the oil regularly and staying away from KIAS will also help

I wanna hear it without the cap like it was to begin with lol.

That kia engine sounds like its got a solid 345 miles on it.

You know what else works? Changing your oil!!

To anyone who watches this video. Measure the exact ounces needed!!! Do not just guess on how much to pour in. Also try to do this 200-300 miles before your next oil change

seafoam and kia ... perfect match !

I'd run a premium "extended life oil" ((NOT high car miles oil)) which is high detergent oil, and change the oil filter every 500 miles for at least the next three to four scheduled oil changes. In about a year you'll have the cleanest engine on the block. That's what I'd do.

Cap off, cap on makes the big difference doesn't it😮😮😮

Marvel mystery is good alternative

16 oz. of dexron 6 ATF 1-200 miles before every other oil change 👍🏽

Plot twist he rebuilt the top end 🤣

Actually i thought this is cap but today i just tried the Seafoam and wow my bad timing chain tensioner noise is gone

I agree, the stuff definitely works.. but you may want to be a little more careful with it on a running engine, it is extremely flammable.

Let’s put the oil cap back on top of the engine after the additive and see if the tapping sound is still there.

As for treatment... The stuff does work. But do know it is more of a cleaning additive than a lubricant. Leaving a ton of it in your oil for a long period will likely end up causing damage. It should be added and used like the instructions say at most. I personally don't run it in the oil day to day. I will use it to clean things up like this while at idle or with some revving and maybe a short jaunt around the block at operating temperature. I would never just pour a bunch of it in my oil and run it from oil change to oil change. I typically will do this before an oil change every so often if I see or feel the need. Drain it and add fresh oil/filter.

Changing the badge of manufacture would help a whole lot better

Taken across two videos, just like those info commercial ads.😂

This stuff is made for outboard motors. That's why it's called sea foam.

I used a regular oil cleaner in the oil in a 13 year old car. The vibration stopped, the engine ran better, but I lost compression. This was on a car that used mineral oil. Change the oil after “cleaning “ the motor.

Dude adds Seafoam like how I drink vodka. "Maybe just a little more"

Brings my outboard back to life every year..

I did the same thing to my Toyota ready to blow up quieted right down. It does work!

I think seafoam cleaned so well the sludge..lubricated everything but contaminated everything with sludge

Long gone and 50k mile’s still running strong

I came here to see sludge

After a fresh oil change yes. It’s a cleaning solvent

I wanna hear it after the oil change

A mechanical problem will NOT be fixed due to a liquid additive

And hydraulic lifters on a Kia get all kind of clogged up if you don't do oil changes regularly and seafoam will clean that shit right out. Works good on certain Dodge ticks too.

An old timer once told me put one in the pink and two in the stink. Back when gas used to be pink. Wait what are we talking about again?

I’ve seen the good, the bad , and the ugly reviews on this stuff. lol. Project farm on you tube does a great review of engine cleaners. The one thing about all these products is that with regular use you usually won’t notice a difference. However if your engine is having problems you will notice a difference.

Thats a pretty nasty sounding lifter tick, glad you could get it out with alittle seafoam.

Been using sea foam in crank case tank and use the throttle flush since 2012 and will still Great stuff

That cars biggest problem is being a KIA. 90/140 gear oil quiets them down, too.😊

Sea foam actually works well

You can also use diesel fuel! Is cheaper then seafoam 😅

Cheap oils build up varnishes and sludge during decomposition (because they’re cheap). High quality breaks down a lot slower, allowing an extended (15,000 miles +) or even a normal interval (5000 miles) oil change without any sludge buildup. Sludge is indicative that the very components put in for wear and lubricity have already started to separate from the “carrier” base. Most oil companies get their base from very few suppliers in the U.S, but its the additives in the oil that define its efficiency and quality. Try Amsoil, its all I use in EVERYTHING. Zero turn, push mower, 4 wheeler, tractor, GMC HD 2500 Diesel, Chevy Silverado, and in my 50hp 3 cylinder 2stroke in the fuel ⛽️, it cleared a needle valve copper colored needle problem I had and engine ran like new again. You get back in longevity what you put in your engines. I might pay $15.49 per quart ( Amsoil signature series) , but if I wanted to , I could go to the stated 25,000 miles before an oil change. I usually go to 15,000. So the 5000 miles all other oils claim you need to change, and font till 15,000, thats where the benefits start. So divide my initial cost by THREE and you get the savings. $15.49 per quart divided by 3 oil change intervals, and it comes to $5.16 per quart, without all the oil changes in between. Not to mention the cost of your oil brand times 3, ( 5000 miles X three times) and Amsoil comes out much cheaper, less times on the rack, and better engine longevity. They even sell a hand pump kit with oil sample bottle and hose, to siphon oil through your dipstick, to mail in for an in depth oil analysis. They’ll literally tell you how many more miles you can go before it needs changing. Having said all this, Seafoam absolutely works, use it to initially clean out your former sludge producing oils, by putting in 100 miles before oil change, drive it normally then change the oil. Add the maintenance dose specified on the can, and continue till 5000 miles ( I disregard the 15,000 this first Amsoil- oil change), because Im trying to get the remnants of old oil, not drained initially during the last change, and any extra the maintenance dose might have loosened since then….can’t help it I’m anal that way. THEN, I ONLY use Seafoam 100 miles before as specified to assist future oil changes and drainage to cover possible leftover residues. But no more maintenance doses. I’ve had no engine problems for decades. You get out, what you put in. A little investment now, saves a costly repair and or damage later. No I don’t sell either product. I try to share personal experience and explain as fully as possible.

People actually think its the cap that made the noise louder 😂😂😂😂😂

I read some comments and…….? There are ways to clean this, try asking how on U tube. Change oil every 1500 miles for 4 or 5 times. Then after that try changing oil, every 3000 miles and/or every 6 months whichever comes first. If this doesn’t work, scrap car, next car change oil twice as often as manufacturer suggests or more often.

The last time I tried that cost me a head gasket.

Yeah it works quite well when combined with putting the oil cap back on doesnt it? 😂

Damn, what you do change your oil every 20,000😂

How many quarts of oil did they put in after the sea foam before putting the cap back on??😅

Bad PCV likely is causing it to run rough also.

Great stuff.

I know what does work BG Moa that stuff does work when I was a mechanic we used it all the time to quiet engines down and it really did

Sounds like a Model T

Changing your oil works even better 😅

The can of Seafoam cost more than the car.

You do know you have to change the oil after you only add it to your oil to help brake the sludge and grime down but it affects your oil so you gotta change that if not that was just a waste of time

That oil cap gonna fall and land on top of the frame and you ain’t never gonna find it.

Do not add too much seafoam at one time. Add half of what the guy in the video added, then, go out and red line the car. After pushing it hard, change the oil immediately.

stuff made my jeeps v8 oil turn from dark brown to black it gets all the deposits off but DAMN thats like 10 ounces too much

When did you start making diesel engines?😂

I’m sure simply putting the oil cap back on probably solved the entire issue.

Any new car runs rougher with the cap off. Run it the same way both times.

Sea foam is a distilled product. Very flammable, its like adding gasoline to the engine. 😅😅😅

1 year later first time seeing November 6 2023

I heard you were not suppose to add anything with the engine running?

That stuff clogs the catalytic converter. I know because I had it happen to two vehicles. It's made for 2 stroke engines.

So do regular oil changes

Kia aye?

I knew a dude that would use a little transmission fluid clean every thing out it would work but i don't know about the seals lol

What loox like worx? Unplugging the cap, putting ANYTHING you want to make look like it worx and record the sound after cap on 🤣🤣🤣

Probably wouldn't have had that problem in the first place if it wasn't a Kia

Hardest part of making this job was your buddy underneath it making it shake then the sound edits after…. The blow by alone would of moved the liquid as u poured in

And what was the time lapse from when the video jumped to when your oil cap was off and then the video jump showing your oil cap was back on

Why did they cut away in the video

That’s what 10,000 mile oil changes get you,collapsed lifters and clogged intake valves😢

Sounds like the Oil level went up by adding the seafoam. Probably because it was low

It's a lot easier to simply change oil regularly around 5k with proper oil / grade... but hey out of sight 🙈 and sound 🙉 so all must be good 😳

Not in my rig. Guy cleaned his bearing to good in his diesel . It spun bearing ? 😮

Brand new

Question so do i buy 2 one for the gas tank and one for the engine??

Hell yeah it does 💪

I don’t think he read the instructions but it’s KIA

this is what happens when you don't change your oil!! I know people who take years to change them because they are stingy and supposedly. change oil every 10000km and you will never get anything wrong. and of course

How does it clean the back of the GDI intake valves?

You know systems are pressurized and it's not good to have the oil cap off with the motor running right ?

oil works too

The noise is coming from it not having a cap on. As I was watching this I was hoping this person wouldn’t try and play it off as if the product had worked so well when it was the oil cap the entire time. 🤦🏻‍♂️

What Kia sounds like that.

Adding seafoam to that worthless clunker is a major Capital improvement which is a shame and a waste!! 😞

How long it took to quiet the clack down?

Harry Kane almost scoring 30 this season is impressive with that Spurs team.

Not buying a Kia.. that works too.

What does it sound like after a proper oil change?

You better go get yourself some topnof the line engine flush and take that cover off the top of the engine and CLEAN THAT SHIT. If its knocking like this chances are your engine isngoing ro blow from all the sludge buld up. Hopefully it saves it. IF do what i just said. Also change the oil. Then after 800 miles change that oil again. If you make it to thet point you should be in the clear. Regular maintenance is needed just like anything in this world. Especially a bunch of metal grinding and clicking together on MASSIVE scale, under MASSIVE PRESSURE. Please that. 🙏

I can pull a plug wire, pour kerosene in the crankcase put the plug wire back on and get the same results.

Never use that shit

Difference between synthetic and regular oil changes. Synthetic oil wouldn’t give ya all that coked up oil in the engine.

Change your oil every 2 or 3k. Your engine it will long lasting.

Sounds like diesel 😅

Eso está mal!!, es 1oz por cada 4to de aceite si te pasas de cantidad degradas demasiado el aceite y puedes dañar el motor, 5oz x 5cuartos y se conduce unas 200 millas y se hace otro cambio de aceite nuevo....

😳

An oil change earlier wouldn't have required seafoam, same result would have been achieved with Wynns engine flush or similar to loosen that noisy hydraulic lifter because of sludge. Not shooting down the product. Just saying.

Buy a Toyota. You don’t see Kia’s in third world countries driving everywhere and lasting decades

You stop the vid before it finishes then restarted vid and no car running......funny

Lifter holes where plugged
