I tried Sea Foam Motor treatment today
Very easy to do.
I put some in the intake and crankase (half and half)
Motor was much quieter afterward.
Recommended!
Inexpensive and safe.
This Is How I Did Mine 3.old (v6)
1. There are two ways of putting SEA FOAM into the intake manifold. See hose #1 and #2 (PVC) in pics.
2. I used hose #1 which is connected from the brake booster (I think that's the term) to the intake manifold. You can pour the SEA FOAM from the brake booster end, however, I chose a different method. I disconnected hose#1 at the intake manifold end and used an extra hose (#3) of similar size that I had laying aound and clamped it down to the manifold and in the original place of hose(#1). Hose (#3) now acted like a funnel. I then used a bottle cap (#4) to cover the opening end of hose (#3) so that the engine would not die when I started the vehicle. This was the sequence:
A. I started the engine and warmed it up
B. Removed the bottle cap(#4)
C. Poured 1/2 bottle of SEA FORM down the hose (#3){***YOUR ENGINE WILL START TO STALL BUT DON'T LET IT DIE BY MANAGING THE AMOUNT OF SEA FORM BEING POURED IN***THERE WILL BE SMOKE EVERYWHERE BUT DON'T PANIC AND CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT***}
D. Shut off the engine and let it sat for 10 minutes. While I let it sat for 10 minutes, I removed hose (# 3) and plugged back the original hose (#1) into the manifold. I then poured the rest of the SEA FORM into the crank case via the way one would pour oil into the engine.
E. Once 10 minutes was up, I started the vehicle and drove and drove and drove until there was no more smoke coming out of the exhaust.
The engine sounded so quiet so I took the advice of TOYOTATOM93(below)and bought myself another bottle for the fuel tank.
Awesome!

Ya I got nothing but good things to say about it, and I am going to do my dads corolla this weekend, hopefully the smoke will freak him out.
You should do another treatment and put some in the gas tank as well. I found after my second treatment about 3 days later it smoked even more carbon out.

The crankcase is easy enough, I'll just dump it in the oil fill on the valve cover
BTW, do you have a 22RE or 3VZE?

Sea Foam right?
Just be sure you don't pour it in so fast you hydrolock the engine... I held my thumb over the PCV hose and cracked it open and just poured a small stream in front of it and it sucked it in.
It worked about as well as a bottle of STP gas treatment.
