I wanna clear this up in case someone misunderstands, but i ran seafoam like i was supposed to, and it smoked up the street like i expected. It was fine for a few days, probably for more than a week, then i noticed coolant coming out of my exhaust and a slight power loss. Not sure if it was related, and if it was, my headgasket was probably not sealing right for a while, and was on its way out.
Good luck tho with replacing it, its a pretty involving job. This post has been edited by mikew04: Jun 8, 2005 - 3:34 PM --------------------  |
