Thanks SVT, I will check that out too, I went ahead and used the SEA FOAM, and It's still surging, I put about have the bottle in the brake booster line and the other half in the gas tank, then I let it sit for about 10-15 min. Cranked it and saw some smoke, not a whole lot like I've seen on YouTube, so do I need to use another bottle?? This surge is pissing me off :twisted:

I've used Sea Foam on all my vehicles. Noticed smoother idle and generally better driveablilty after treatment. Do a Utube search on it.

I wouldn't guarantee that this is going to be the quick fix for you, might have to start looking for other issues to your problem.

Did you ever fix the surge? Just curious what the problem was.

I have no clue what the problem was, but like i posted before, was frustrated because the way it was surging, i got pissed and took it on the highway doing 90, when i came into town stopped at a light and it was surging right, havent had a problem since. So....when u have bad surge, floor it!!! :P

Sounds like you need to take it out and drive it. Blow the cob webs out, also I never understood why people run Fuel injector cleaner, the chemical in it, is made to brake down carbon, and it is also bad for anything plastic, such as fuel lines, and the plastic coating in the fuel tank.

I have never ran any kind of cleaner in my cars, and none of them have ever had problems, the old saying. If it isn't broke dont fix it.
