Ideal for Gasoline Direct Injection engines, it safely removes deposits, lubricates throttle components, and protects engine parts during storage. Made in the USA, non-abrasive, and safe for oxygen sensors, it’s a must-have for maintaining peak engine performance. ## Description Over time, carbon deposits build up on intake valves, in the upper cylinders, and around the combustion chamber β€” leading to rough idle, hesitation, reduced fuel economy, and a noticeable loss of power. Sea Foam Spray cleans these harmful deposits to help your engine run smoother and recover lost performance. . Especially critical for Gasoline Direct Injection (GDI) engines, Sea Foam Spray cleans where fuel additives can’t reach. Cleaning intake valves and chamber areas is easy with Sea Foam Spray. Using our unique Tube & Hook guide Tool under the air intake boot helps to avoid the hassle of removing parts. Simply spray through your vehicle's air intake or carburetor throat . Sea Foam Spray cleans and lubricates critical engine areas including intake valves and combustion chambers, helping restore smoother idle and better throttle response. For use in gasoline engines only, Sea Foam Spray is a favorite among DIY’ers and professionals alike for routine maintenance or as a fix when carbon buildup starts to affect performance. No special tools or disassembly needed. Review: If you're skeptical, read this! - I'm rewriting this review weeks after my first use of SeaFoam. My first review was about the smoke, the car running smoother, etc, etc... The normal stuff. As of now, this product has done so much for both our cars... I see alot of debate online about its' effectiveness. People either love SeaFoam or consider it "snake oil". They also criticize saying the smoke is actually the product burning off, not carbon. To the smoke part, I say what difference does it make? We have two high-mileage cars. A 2009 Jeep LIberty with 143,000 miles and a 2013 Kia Forte with 94,000. The Jeep has had its' Check Engine light on for almost a year - P0430 code, "Cat Inefficiency, Bank 2." The timing chains and guides have been replaced along with the Thermal Intake Sensor (what Jeep calls the MASS Airflow Sensor), MAP Sensor, and EGR valve. The car has been through alot, running very rich for years as we worked out problems and I lived near the ocean for a long time so I began to accept the Catalytic Coverter was history from abuse and salt. I did run CatAClean through (not cheap), cleared the code repeatedly and the Check Engine light just came back on. I tried Techroline (and others), and SeaFoam in the gas tank, same thing. Two shops handed me $2,200 estimates for an entire Catalytic Converter Y-pipe because the second cat was sure to be next. I've also been told all along that the Jeep's motor looks all carboned up on a scope. I ran this product in the intake, did the whole hot soak and smoke thing, cleared the codes, and the Check Engine light has stayed off for weeks! It never stayed off for more than a day before; returning the moment the car got hot. No more P0430 code for the first time in almost a year and I've driving the hell out of it!!! I wasn't even trying this for this problem, I just wanted the idle to smooth out... this was an unintended consequence and is saving us $2,000 because had the light stayed on, I was going to have to replace the cats just to SMOG It. I couldn't even sell it if I wanted to. Now the KIA... we've had problems with the car pinging LOUD on hard acceleration. I hadn't tried much to remedy it but it was getting very bad. I figured I'd deal with it at the 100K tune up. But because of the experience with the Jeep, I ran this in the KIA's intake and let it hot soak for fifteen minutes - really out of curiosity. When we started it back up, there was no smoke - NONE. For miles nothing and it was still pinging! Then all of a sudden on the freeway accelerating, the car kind of paused for a second (which scared me a little) and suddenly started blowing blue smoke out the back - making it difficult to even see the car behind. It gradually recovered and the pinging was completely gone. It idles so quiet now I have to keep checking it is actually running. Just like everyone, I've wasted so much money on miracle cures hoping to luck out. It never happens. Honestly, I've run a lot of regular SeaFoam in the gas tank and it never seemed to do anything. (although I just ran it in the oil and yes it really helped). But this product is really great. Chrysler sells something identical (for $40 a can) and the guys at Valvoline said they have theirs too. It seems safe for the car as long as you keep it away from your MASS Airflow Sensor. I probably won't use it on the Kia again for a very long time but I'm going to incorporate this into my normal 30,000 mile tuneups on the Jeep. I think many of the people who consider this "snake oil" are people who had more serious issues the than product could help with, or never had any problems at all and expected there to be something spectacular. What I've seen are very real, tangible, quantifiable results and a major repair bill narrowly avoided. Review: Cleaned carbon - Easy to use.

I purchased different ones over the years and the ones with the big black cap are the ones the come with the tube. The other sea foam cans have a small cap for pouring. Hope that helps **Q: I have heard this is bad for maf sensors. I have a map sensor on the throttle body, would this also affect that?** A: Yes. The Tech Guys suggest you disconnect the air inlet tube/duct and spray beyond the sensor. The aerosol comes with a plastic "bent" tube to reach in the back. Check out some of their YouTube videos. **Q: Is this product used by pouring into fuel tank before filling up?** A: No. This is the one product they make specifically NOT to be poured into the fuel tank which is also why it's an aerosol spray for spraying into the air intake. Just read the descriptions or even just the listings and you'll see which are for what purpose. **Q: Should the whole can be used?** A: All instructions are on the can. There are different amounts for different applications. It depends on what you are using it for. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ If you're skeptical, read this! *by T***R on December 31, 2019* I'm rewriting this review weeks after my first use of SeaFoam.

Worked as advertized. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Damn, does this work. 10/10 *by B***T on April 27, 2023* tldr; This stuff works. No more rough idle for my rx8. Be aware your car may smoke for more than anyone online tells you(I was told 10 minutes, and mine smoked for 3 days LMAO). And it will smoke HARD for AT LEAST 10 minutes. It will be hard to see. Do it outside with plenty of ventilation. Follow directions online for YOUR SPECIFIC MAKE AND MODEL! People will point out the smoke, "hey did you know your car is smoking?!" Yes. Yes I know. I daily a Mazda Rx8, the infamous "unreliable" rotary powered Japanese sports car. When I first got the car, it had power issues, and would frequently turn off in the middle of intersections. Took it to the shop, and surprisingly, there were no compression issues. The issue was a failed catalytic converter. Well, after replacing the cat, the thing ran like new. However, there were some rough idles occasionally. After a few hundred miles after the repairs, the idle got worse. I was told by a guy that used to race these things that a failed cat can cause back pressure that can then cause excess carbon buildup. He said to "seafoam it". Following the directions for my specific make and model, it took about 4 hours (only 20 minutes of prep) to let my car soak before starting it up again. Man, DID IT SMOKE!! The car had never been seafoam before, I doubt, so it continued to smoke even after 30 minutes of idling with me revving it to 6k about 20 times, and driving for 15 minutes, hard. I began to panick, however with some research and advice from seafoam themselves, a car may continue to smoke for days of driving, and not to panic. All in all, my car runs amazingly. It feels more responsive, it NEVER idles rough. Highly recommend. ## Frequently Bought Together - Sea Foam Spray Engine Intake Valve Cleaner, SS14, 14 oz - Sea Foam Motor Treatment Fuel & Oil Additive, SF16, 16 oz, Pack of 3 - Gumout 800002231 Carb and Choke Cleaner Jet Spray - 14 oz. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/82454465-sea-foam-spray-intake-system-and-valve-cleaner-14-oz](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/82454465-sea-foam-spray-intake-system-and-valve-cleaner-14-oz) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-09-14*
