I have been an automotive tech for too many years.
Auto techs are usually not that fond of additives, altho do believe in some OEM additives.
But all this halabloo about Seafoam (not just from Bill either) has had my attention. And notice.... I have not badmouth Seafoam, and even recommended to try it in a case or 2. where nothing to loose.
Well,.....ironically, (I'll make a long story short here) I came up w/ an intermittent fuel problem on my 50 hp 4 stroke outboard, that was going to require me to bring it to the Merc boys to (try to) fix......@ $100 an hr, so...........against my better judgement, I bought a can of seafoam. W/ the tank near empty, I mixed it w/ 5 gals of gas (very rich) took it out, trolled it for 5 hrs, cruised it for 45 minutes...5500 R's,
and to my amazement, it didn't miss a lick. But it has gone tween 1-5 hrs before, while running good.
I took it out again yesterday....trolled 3 hrs and cruised 15 minutes, (tank almost dry) and still it hasn't missed a lick !
Did the Seafoam fix it,...or at least do some good ?? I wish I knew for sure, but right now I still have hi hopes. I will now add 10 gals gas and another can of Seafoam.
I will post on it if anything changes. Salmon season is on us here, so I will end up either loving Seafoam, or hating it.
BTW, lighten up on Bill,.....for most times he only tries to help. He isn't selling Seafoam ! .......are you Bill ??
