I have read a lot of people that have used seafoam in the crankcase have had issues shortly after the flush.

I've used CRC 5 min oil flush in my Rangie a couple of times and worked well. Just add the CRC oil flush fluid (oil needs to be at max), start and let it idle for 5 mins (dont go over the 5 mins, dont rev the engine or move the X), and then drain the oil out right away. If you have not done a oil change in along time and the oil looks thick, it might be better just to drain the oil and do the flush the next oil change (could clog the system from the flush).

Cheers,
