Sea foam

[alexman4]

I recently went through the decarb process on my 90 hp Chrysler outboard using deep creep. I sprayed generous amounts of deep creep into all 3 carbs while running and warmed up. I also removed the plugs and sprayed more deep creep into each cylinder put the plugs back in and let it sit for about an hour. I then started it an ran it for about 10 minutes. My question is do or should I still add sea foam to the gas and how often should I go through this process. Thanks

Re: Sea foam

Not necessary since you've cleaned it out good, but some seafoam in the tank is cheap insurance IMO...will help keep it clean.

Re: Sea foam

There are multiple uses for SeaFoam and you just used one of them. Use of SeaFoam in the fuel is an excellent way to keep the fuel system clean, protects the fuel in the tank and continues to prevent carbon build up. I've used it for years in every tank of fuel in my boat and as a regular treatment in every other engine in my stable.

Re: Sea foam

Sea Foam and Deep Creep are GREAT products, i work at an auto parts (Parts Plus Ware house) we sell a ton of both products! Definately use in your fuel too. probably not necessary every tank but won't hurt it at all.

Re: Sea foam

Sometimes I squirt Seafoam directly into each cylinder through the spark plug holes, turn the engine over real quick to distribute evenly, let it sit in there until next time I use the boat, I feel like Seafoam can soak into piston rings and grooves to keep carbon out. So far, so good!
