Default Chemical Cleaning

Has anyone ever tried running something like b-12 or seafoam through the vacuum lines into the front and rear intakes? Is there anything on the AJ16 that would present a problem for this type of valve cleaning? I've successfully done it before on another vehicle by slowly drawing small amounts of the fluid into the intake with engine running, shutting it off and letting it sit and then restarting the engine and allowing the white smoke to clear.

Thoughts?

Peace!
Jack

I've run seafoam in my gas and once in the oil. No ill effects. I've used it on multiple cars with good results.

My '95 VDP had 85K on the clock when I bought it. I switched it over to Mobil 1 0W-40 and when I did I ran seafoam through the gas and the oil. Been runnin' like a champ since.

I've used it on my Land Rover Range Rover and it does help. Haven't got around to it yet on the Jag.
