Fastwin Decarb?

So i had low compression and decided to try to decarb the motor. I did as the secret files directed, sprayed it into the carb for a while and then bogged it out. Sprayed some into the cylinders and let it sit for an hour. Then got it going. Rechecked the compression and it brought it up from 65/70 to 85/90. THe motor starts first pull and is actually running great now!

The question is, is there a limit to how much sea foam you should put through the motor? Should I run a gallon of gas through with a bottle of sea foam? Spray another can into the carb while running? Is there any danger in doing this? Just hoping to bump the compression a little higher and i MIGHT just have a reliable motor. . . (praying)

Thanks, Kelpy

Those new compression numbers are good, I would continue to mix some sea foam in the gas and run it for awhile, use the recomended amount on the can.

I'd run another can through the carb as you did the first time, leave it sit and then run the heck out of it. Then recheck your compression.
