Re: Which Engine Oil?

Bernardi, I have read numerous accounts on the web about engines with flat tappets having the cams ruined by use of the new SM grade oils without ZDDP. There is a long thread on the subject on the AACA Forum.
Seafoam has actually been around since the 1930's developed by an employee of Evinrude Outboard engines hence the name. It is an excellent product for cleaning carbon and gum from engines both in the gas and oil. I use it regularly in my cars to keep injectors working properly, cleaning carbon from cylinders and in the oil just before changing it in the Packard. I hope that doesn't sound like a commercial. I don't own any stock in whatever company makes it!
