I have been chasing multiple check engine codes with a trip to the dealer each time. It now seems that the code last read indicates replacing the catalytic converter at a cost of 1600 to 2000. I have run one can of seafoam through the gas and am now on my second Seafoam tank. Is the Seafoam going to clea...

Maybe this question has been asked before and i remember hearing that vintage motors will leak because of old sealing technology. If it is safe to use in vintage motors, i was thinking of using it in my 57 Pontiac 261 inline six and my 74 Chev 400 V-8. I am thinking that maybe the only real concern is the pos...
