Seafoam

I plan on getting my oil changed and front breaks changed this weekend and wonder whats anybodies opinion on dumping a bottle of seafoam in the gas tank and half a bottle in the oil crank case its a 03 clk500 with 137k miles i feel it will be beneficial.

Techron is the only product Benz approves. Available as a Benz P/N or from many stores & Chevron Stations.

G350 Bluetec
Hehehehe. Just came from dealer. He said they were going to honor a >$10k warranty claim on a new Bluetec when the wife innocently, perhaps, said hubby poured Seafoam into the diesel tank and then the car acted up. SA told me the whole thing was DOA. So was the warranty claim.

Keep watching your Saturday muscle car programs suckers and use their touted skinhead products on your new auction purchases.
