i have a 95 ls400 i seafoamed it and now my oil light is on. i hooked up my computer up to it and nothing isn't showing. did it mess up my sensor or my oil pump. any help will do.
I can't say for sure either way, but it seems like it would be the sensor. Seafoam doesn't get into the crankcase does it? Purely a fuel/emissions treatment? have you checked to see if you knocked the wire loose on the sensor when doing the treatment?
Are you saying the seafoam treatment fouled or ruined the plugs?
It is highly recommended that you change the plugs after the Seafoam treatment. You are cleaning all that carbon out of your intake and it can easily foul up the plugs. If you still have new plugs then inspect and clean.
Well we don't use use it on our G35/G37's due to horror stories of sensors going crazy and horrible idles after, I have just noticed that its talked about quite frequently here on CL.... Sorry, I also have a G35 that I have had for 5 years...,
Here and there we'll read of problems following. Variety of reasons exist though with a healthy engine, the recommended use -should- be fine. Remember "stuff" happens so it it is a risk. That old saying, "don't fix what isn't broken."
I added sea foam to my crancase for 2-3 weeks then got a oil change, nothing happend bad as far as spark plugs
wow you generally don't wanna ever do that. Seafoam really shouldnt be run in your oil for much longer than it takes the car to get to operating temp and then maybe another 10 minutes.
Seafoam in oil has next to no impact on spark plugs anyways, that's only an issue when you run it through the intake tract.
