Default to seafoam or not to seafoam and some...

I'm about to have about 8k worth of fuel go through my engine and and I was wondering about throwing some seafoam into the fuel tank to clean some of that typical gunk buildup, will it screw anything up? I used that stuff on my z28 with no problem but my Sentra hated the stuff and I ended up having to but a new throttle body for it... I'm also about to take my gen to the dealer cause of some vibration in the steering wheel on the highway, not sure what it is, but its constant. ....vibration....vibration...vibration.... It has pauses in it...

Don't seafoam a car on warranty. If you have problems, bring it to the dealer.

Default I had vibration in steering wheel on highway they had to replace my rearend

If tire balance doesn't do it then its probably driveshaft or rear end is bad


Good Luck
