Yeah so im gonna do the seafoam thing to clean out the engine a bit and just wondering who else has done it. So far I just put it in my gas tank but im gonna do the crankcase and the vacuum lines prolly this weekend.

Be prepaired for quite a bit of white smoke. :) Hopefully your neighbors don't mind.

Looks kinda like what mine did, but the cloud of white smoke was about 12-15 feet high and it looked like I just did a sweet burnout...

It was pretty cool actually ;).

On my 1.8T I actually just poured a little bit down the hose that runs between the intercooler and throttle body (I couldn't think of any other way...thus the reasoning). Once you start the car, the vacuum will suck it right into the chambers and just rev it a lil bit and you should get some decent clouds of black smoke, then eventually you'll get those large clouds of white smoke.

One time I kinda poured in too much and the car was pouring out white smoke for the rest of that day.
