I've heard that seafoam is a really good and easy way to clean the car up a bit. When I go look at videos and ask people they tell me pour it into the Oil crank case, Brake booster, and fuel tank. It sounds stupid to pour something that doesn't belong into the brake booster and espescially the crank case. I just want to know if anyone has ever used it and does it really work or is it just stupid.

if your motor has high miles it may not be the best idea because all the oil and "crud" thats attached to your seals will come off raising the chances of you having some type of oil leak.. like my 5s did a few weeks after i used it. throttle response was better, but leaked oil..
