Default Re: Sea Foam

About 20 years ago I bought a very nice one owner Olds cheap because it sounded like the rods were shot. After checking them and the rockers, it turned out the hydraulic lifters were stuck. I drove to the store and bought a can of Sea-Foam. I poured it in the oil and before I drove the 5 miles home the engine was quiet as new. Sea-Foam is the first thing I'll try for stuck valve and lifters.

Has anyone ever tried Sea-Foam for a stuck engine? I wonder how it would do on stuck bolts and nuts also?
