    A note to new registrants...
    All new forum registrations must be activated via email before you have full access to the forum.

    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Uh Oh - Whats wrong?

but there is always the possibility that your head gasket
was just about ready to go anyway, and maybe the Seafoam was just enough to take it over the edge.

With as many guys as I know on the GoldWing board that swear by the stuff, and as often as they use it,
you would think that at least one of them might have also had a bad experience with it.

This is true, anything that fails prematurely was likely to fail one way or another - it may be purely coincidence that it happened during the use of sea-foam.

I also swear by the stuff, I just go by the dosage as recommended on the back of the can - I don't want anybody to have the experience I had.

Forgive me for upsetting people with my story, I was only trying to help eliminate a potential possibility and share an experience at the same time.

Sorry to distract people from the original posters concerns, but people assuming that since I'm "new" means i know nothing isn't really fair. I've been an auto mechanic for the past 12 years - my intent is only to learn / share like the rest of you.

Back on topic now..
