66k with no catch can - question - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

I am getting a catch can now, for my LLT. Is there anything I should think about also checking or product I should use to help clean up potential previous blow by oil? Spark plugs, fuel treatment, seafoam, etc?

I have heard good things about seafoam, however I have never used it. One thing I did read was it is pretty hard on your cats.

I would look into having a manual upper induction and valve cleaning done.

I also have the same question. I just purchased a used 2010 SS that has 26k miles. Should I have a cleaning done prior to installation? I am new to the "catch can" but have read a lot about it.

Thanks.
