Well honestly man, you already bought it, so you might as well put it in. It wont do any damage, and can only help you in the long run.

Of course it will work, it'll do some good. But there are other products and other methods of cleaning that would make much more of an impact. But that's gobs of information and products i don't feel like typing. Just search seafoam.
IOW: do what Infin1ty said and pour it in there.

Ns - how good are you with your hands? ... ever pull apart an engine b4?
The reason I ask is that if you pull the 6 fuel injectors out and have them professionally clean .. you'll get some benefits.

If you can't do it .. go see ur mechanic to see how much he'll charge to clean the injectors ... these days u dont even have to pull them apart .. just hook ur car to a machine which runs a full can of fluid through your fuel line and magically clean the deposits which clogs or injectors and fuel lines.

My uncle owns a garage shop and after mine car was done... the acceleration feel much better.

you'll notice a huge difference doing a seafoam treatment. There's a DIY in this forum, just do a search.

Lexucan

I'm running with this stuff in my fuel tank:

I've heard and read lots of positive things about it. And, it's biodegradable, so it doesn't f-up the environment.

Every time I fill the tank, I put in another bottle. It loobrikates the engine, cleans it, improves gas mileage, and lowers emissions.

What's up Lexucan? How long have you been using this stuff?

When I was in living south of the border, I used a whole bunch of different fuel injector cleaners (you needed them). Probably the best of the bunch that I tried was Redline's Fuel System Cleaner (Pep Boys generally carries this) though Amsoil's cleaner wasn't that far behind (some Carquest stores carry the Amsoil line). Techron did a decent job, but nowhere near the others. You could sense the difference with the first two. And even tried testing some of those cleaners on vehicles at my uncle's shop that had been using the high sulfur regular gas.

BGK44 is another excellent one.

Here is a link to the DIY for using SeaFoam. It's in the LS forum, but you should be able to apply this to an ES with no issues.

I would actually use Phoenix's "How to: Seafoam" for ES's thread. I posted it up at the DIY sticky at the top of the page but I'll link it here. If you must use the LS's version, DON'T wash your car. It'll get dirty again assuming you spew out black/gray smoke lol
