Does Sea Foam Spray interfere with my MAP sensor [SOLVED]

My car has a MAP sensor in the throttle body. Is Sea Foam Spray safe to use on my car by spraying it into the throttle body?

Thanks for the question Max! Sea Foam Spray will not interfere with your MAP (manifold absolute pressure) sensor, which is downstream from the throttle plate, so no need to worry! Just make sure that you’re spraying downstream from the MAF (mass air flow) sensor (most MAF sensors are usually a safe distance upstream of the throttle plate).

Howdy, I have a 2011 3.5 Ecoboost, and when I applied the Sea Foam Spray it wasn’t right in front of the throttle body. Do I need to worry about my sensors?

Hi Mark. If you don’t apply in front of the throttle plate the fluid can end up pooling somewhere. Tough to answer without more specifics.

Is it safe for a 2015 F150 5.0?
