If you check their website, Seafoam is a pretty much a concentrated petroleum additive that doesn't require much to do it's job. If you want to use three cans, sure go right ahead. I'm sure once you're done using it, your intake manifold, crankcase & gas tank will be SQUEAKY clean!!!
Pouring a can in the crankcase BEFORE every oil change sure helps to make sure you get all the sludge out. Just remember to flush the excess Seafoam out by pouring half a bottle of NEW motor oil into the engine & draining it before you add the NEW oil. If you don't drain the half bottle you added of the NEW oil, you'll dilute the NEW oil & the new oil won't work as good at protecting your engine. As for the manifold & gas tank, just use it sparingly in the manifold & gas tank. You might melt the honeycomb lattice inside your catalytic converter.
