It wasn't every tank, I had just been running it in the previous tank. I use my '92 9000 turbo as a my primary winter driver, since it's already a little rusty, so it just took me a while to go through the full tank in the Aero.
When I bought the Aero, the previous owner lived in an area where there wasn't access to a saab mechanic (dealer or indy), so I was reasonably sure the car was behind on maintenance in general. The Aero was a little sluggish on the acceleration, so I thought I'd try to clean things out with the seafoam. I'd actually read about it on this board.
So I ran some through a vacuum hose on the intake (HUGE clouds of white smoke), and poured the rest of the can (about 1/2) into the gas tank, because I figured that after 150k miles, the injectors could be a bit dirty.
It's improved performance a little, but I think there's still something not quite right. My '92 still seems a lot faster.
