I much prefer using Seafoam. No additives to it, just a perfect cleaner.

I've tried various fuel injector cleaners in previous cars, with limited success. I've never tried seafoam yet. But I'm hearing it's a much better product than most others.

I like to use it every spring, winter gas has all those additives so it doesn't freeze, and it helps convert everything to a burnable liquid.

Good tip Mike.

With the snow tires on my Monte, winter gas (or any gas) doesn't last long in my car. But I know what you mean. The left over stuff that won't burn gets mixed into the seafoam and burned.

In our clusters we have things called Stepper Motors. Those can go bad and usually need to be replaced.
