I just seafoamed mine the other day. My KJ smoked more than any other vechicle I've owned after the seafoam. It now runs smoother and I'm hoping with return better mpg. I did not change my spark plugs after.

I very rarely take my jeep above 3000rpms so it probably contributes to the smoke. I also let it sit for 20 minutes instead of 5 because I got sidetracked cleaning dirt out of my engine by with compressed air.

I never seafoamed my Jeep yet but I will do it once its time for a oil change. I did do it to my V8 Camaro and I got better/more pulling power and I gained about 1-2 more MPG from it. I'm the 2nd owner of this car and I'm sure that this has been the 1st time the car has been treated with it.

Seafoamed mine a few years ago, but had to change out the plugs afterwards. I drove it right after and it felt like it was only running a few cylinders, very jerky for a few minutes then went away. Good idea to change them anyway, but not completely necesary.

I always put a bottle in the tank and run it through before I change the fuel filter.
