Question Seafoam, Marvels....etc

Just wondering what kind of addatives you guys use and what ones that you know to stay away from. And good ones for an engine that sat for awhile to clean and resto. it?

SeaFoam is the only additive I use. Great for carb cleaner / valve combusion chamber cleaner. Be careful using in a real old vehicle thats "nasty" in the tank / lines etc. It WILL clean stuff out and you may regret ever unleashing that stuff ! what you don't want to deal with !

JB's transmission leak "fixer" has worked pretty good for me in the past.

I just got some JB products. I got the Engine Tune Up and the fuel system treatment. I'm kinda weary of using seafoam for the exact reason sdmahr gave.

SeaFoam is great stuff I have used it for years I pour it down the gas tank and down the carb not in the oil
