Seafoam and Lucas are snake oil?

This guy disagrees, he confirms what I already knew.

He's got a good YouTube channel (Project Farm) that I watch often. Some of his testing seems very well thought out, such as oil comparison testing.  But he also does stupid stuff like "Will an engine run with honey as oil?".

That guy does some fun videos. He ran a wood cylinder head on an engine just to see how it did.

Seafoam is great stuff really really good injector cleaner use it in all my rigs.
Except I like to use the Lucas fuel system treatment in the 2013 mini as it's also a lubricant and the high-pressure fuel pump and direct injectors like that. However, it does not seem to be as good of a cleaner as sea foam.

Some people just don't get maintenance over the years I have replaced many engines due to melted/broken pistons due to partially blocked fuel injectors leaning a cylinder to failure.

I think his judgement on Lucas oil additive is wrong. While very thick, it stays on the bearings and coats the internals.

I use Lucas in ALL of my vehicles.  I swear by it.

A few months ago I purchased a couple of cans of Seafoam additive and a can of the intake cleaner spray, I need to find motivation and time to do it to my Tacoma which idles horridly.

I work too much and have many other projects around house that need addressing.

Toyota's respond really well to a good fuel injector and intake cleaning. To start with dump a full can in about a 1/4 tank of fuel and do the intake spray then let it sit over night and take it for a drive. Follow up with recommened doses in the fuel.
