    yeah i had my friend help me out who had no idea what it was or what id did. basically had him hold open the throttle while i fed the seafoam in.

    nothings nicer than having an excuse to rev your engine really loud and having beautiful white smoke pour out your exhaust =)

    cleaned my interior in preperation for saturdays meet =)

    basically vacummed and steam cleaned the mats

    dash and panels got wiped down with murphys oil soap cut with heavily cut with water. maybe about a 1/20th soap to water

    then tried out Megs natural shine protectant. which to my surpise was really nice. left a nice natural clean glossy look w/o being greasy, or being grossly shiney like armor all.
