    Hey everyone,

    So last weekend, a buddy and myself did the full EGR cleaning, along with the trottle body, intake manifold. Pretty much everything that was done in the vidoes that NutzaboutBolts has done. Also installed an oil catch can.

    So my question is, should I put seafoam into my gas every now and then? I have a 2013 Prius V with 130,000 miles.

    I did BG Products 44k annually and I think that helped;).

    Their EPR treatment for each oil change also is a good measure :).

    But if you try seafoam, keep us posted on your results (y).
