    Default Seafoam in oil for how many minutes or miles?

    Hi,
    I'm considering adding a can of seafoam to the oil before an oil change.

    However, my gut says:
    - NO, the engine is clean, cams looked pristine at 150K miles.
    - NO, you already use Mobile 1 syn 0w40 every 5K miles...
    - WHY add "gas" in the oil and jack up & thin out lubrication of bearings, etc

    So, while the can says you CAN do it... I'm leaning towards NOT doing it.

    Thought I'd ask you all..
    Cheers,
    Rob.
