SeaFoam for winter storage, ruff running, and so much more
SeaFoam
A garage must have if you ask me. This stuff is just amazing. I would call "snake oil" if I haven't used it myself and know many others who have done the same. How To Vid http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...90865726229173 I know this winter I will be storing my bike with this in it instead of stabil. |

Last spring, my sons dirt bike was very hard to start and it was idling super rough or wouldn't idle at all. A splash of seafoam in the tank and 5 minutes later the bike ran like a champ again.

I use stabil as preventative maintenance, and seafoam as a reactive maintenance if needed.
Stabil has always worked if used properly, but seafoam is definatly good shit! |

I run some seafoam in my gas every once in a while... the ethanol (10%) in our gas around here encourages valve buildup and I want those fuckers shiny and clean.

I've used it every time I've brought my bike out of storage (which seems like way too much damn it!) run a can through with the fuel... usually half at a time... never had an issue with my fuel or carbs that it hasn't fixed. |
