good in that it cleaned out your engine. but bad in that now it might have loosened some stuff that was being held in by the sludge and you might get some oil consumption. especially if you now go and run some full synthetic stuff.

i dont think i made alot of damage to the car cuz the engine only has 40-50k....13 k since i put in it the car...seafoam says o2 sensor safe....yeah i didnt put it in the oil so i didnt think i had to change it. plus i ran syntetic oil so it will last forever.:bandance: im only 18.....i dont plan to have kids anytime soon...if you read next time i said they were my uncles kids.....he works at a body shop...so he helps me alot. and i would NEVER buy another carburated car in my life.....FUEL INJECTION FTW! :thumbup:

oh I know they are not your kids, maybe I worded it hard to read, hell I was trying to write a rap song. lol just cutting up with ya Messy....Monkey, I would sell my car in a skinny minute for 1500 , about what Messy is about to put in his. Mine is complete except for minor tuning issues which I plan on fixing next weekend.
I am not advertising it for sale , basically a bluff cuz I Know he already said he would come to GA meet, blah blah blah... just making a point, some of us put too much into these cars and those funds will not be recovered unless you find just the right customer.... Dam and they say I take things too seriousley on the forum...
also I must confess I think I have a new love... the civic... help me ....help
lol
