I'm planning on seafoaming the oil system and fuel system before my next oil change (1 month or 2). But last time at the dealership they had mentioned I would need a new Oil Pump because of a leak they saw. When I pressed her about the diagnosis (and pointing out that the pump itself is probably not leaking itself) she looked unconfortable (not sure if it's because i caught her or because she was getting into the technical aspects and wasnt to comfrotable with the specifics) and stated that there were a lot of hoses and gaskets that would need to be done too.
If I seafoam my oil system, it has the possibility to make this very small leak into a much larger one, right?
I don't have any leaks in my fuel system, but is it possible that the crud that Seafoam takes care of is what is plugging the soon-to-be-leaks?
A bit of history: I got this car from an older lady via the dealer ship about 5.5 years ago. I've done major maintenance (timing belt, new transmission), but not done minor work like changing hoses or seafoaming.
I'm young and still have a small loan on the car because I'm dumb. But I'd like for it to last for the next 3 - 4 years.
