I dont recommend the Seafoam. if the vehicle has low mileage just use fuel additive.

Only use the Seafoam when you have a valve that is hanging up.

Which isnt as common as the older Discos.

In fact we see more Coil problems then anything else on those engines.

SeaFoam is a gas additive, just happens it works well as an induction cleaner also, like B&G and some of the other induction cleaners.

It isn't that good as an oil additive.
If you want to help you crank case, flush it then do regular 3000 mile changes using a decent oil and a good filter.

Just run synthetic engine oil and always use premium gas. Add a can of fuel conditioner every other oil change.
