If I put half a bottle of Seafoam where I normally pour in oil to top it off, how many miles is ok to drive it around like that?
The can says something to the effect of "drive a little bit, then get an oil change" and "use for long term cleaning" but I'm worried that leaving it in there too long would cause damage.
This is for a 2001 Ford Ranger XLT 2.5L engine with 165k miles. I ran Seafoam around 150k miles through the vaccum or whatever that is, then around 155k miles, I had a friend do the 3M kit (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003YJ47JO/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i01) on the truck.
I run synthetic and have been running it since 150k miles. Always used to run regular dino from the 10 minute quick changes (I know that's bad! lol) before that, but I need the longer OCI now.
