Sea Foam Home Brew (A Link)

My only experience with Michigan, was Detroit, and I instantly understood why the suicide rate was so high. Not real fair to the upper peninsula is it?

My only experience with Mexico was hauling avacados and that wasn't great.

Come ride with me when the diet is straight Mexican regular gasoline.

And oh yeah, bring a neck brace. And a spare starter motor for the totally unnecessary eight or nine cold engine restarts.

The only mouse-milk I have found that cures this and it does it quickly and completely is Chevron's Techron. None of my other gasoline vehicles needed mouse milk. I wish the Dodge Spirit didn't either. BTW it ate Sea Foam and laughed. Didn't do a thing. Neither did Lucas or five other brands of mouse-milk. Tried six, only Techron worked.

Refined in USA Mexican Premium grade will go for around 7,000 miles before slight symptoms set in. With Magna it's 1-2,000 miles and then it's baaaaad news. Several years ago I limped bucking and snorting north across the border. Filled up at a Chevron station. But it took several hundred miles to cure the problem.

If you insist on telling me to change cars, send money, because Social Insecurity does not allow such lavish increases in life-style.

Techron. Genuine mouse-milk. Don't be fooled by rat-milk wanna be's

If you provide a cheaper easier to get substitute for this PITA fix I will send you FREE a brand new Sure Power 200-amp bi-directional battery separator. Send smartassremarks and I will place a hex on your converter.

I'm the canned gas person. Wait until your Pooloan suffers from phase shift and it's carb time...

I use Marvel Mystery Oil too. Smells good....

I got my ratio out in the barn. Have been using home brew sea foam for years. Works for me.

As far as buying the spensive canned gas for the two cycle, I have one poulan that dates back to the late 80's. It is still running on E10 and wally world 2 cycle oil. My Stihl even eats that mix like it is hungry. :h

I Know seafoam has an especially loyal following on this forum especially where generators are concerned.

But I prefer any fuel system cleaner I employ to use PEA, poly ether amine. Originally developed by chevron for techron, PEA smells fishy and is said to claan carbon deposits without leaving any of its own.

Gumout with Regane employs a healthy dose of PEA
Redline SL-1
Berryans
3M
Techron concentrate
CRC GTP,
are but a few products available with healthy doses of PEA.

Seafoam, well I get enough alcohol in my gasahol that i will not intentionally add even more.

I have used the Seafoam deep creep, injecting it into a vaccuum line as I drove for the smoke show and short lived smoother idle and a lazy o2 sensor soon after.

BUt I'll stick to the PEA FSC once a year before an oil change.

If concerned with carbon in combustion cambers I'll mist the distilled water into the intake trick.

Some people use TC-w3 at 2 oz per 10 gallons in their fuel and claim that their piston crowns are spotless.

The use of a good quality 2 cycle oil at 50/1 obviates the use of additives for two cycle fuel.

One could make the same argument for the operation of a newer gas powered vehicle, the fuel management and engineering eliminate the use of additives.

Where a product like Seafoam (or the homebrew) really shines is with storage situations, where the additive acts like an anti-oxidant to remaining fuel in the supply. Seafoam can also induce an engine with fuel issues to become operable but that is a rare occurrence.

Gasoline with additive alcohol blend has to be different for different regions of the US. There is no other reason why anecdotal success is related by some and others, like myself, have no issues with 10% blended gas. FWIW, I maintained and operated a fleet of small gasoline engines for 6 years, all on 10% blended gas. Beyond that, we had 30 or so 2 cycle engines, also using 10% blend. The 2 cycle fuel was mixed in 55 gallon drums using a 50:1 oil mix.

I only use high test unleaded in all of my small engines both 4 cycle and 2 cycle, very easy to find in my area. Homebrewing Sounds like a pretty good idea tho.
I agree that 2 cycles are still around and will remain for some time, even our golf cart is 2 cycle, and a couple of old outboard motors ,chain saws, trimmers, post hole diggers, you cannot use 4 cycle in some of the positions a 2 cycle will run because there is no oil sump, and in some cases as in our golf cart it will run in reverse.

2 cycle engines are almost extinct and anyone who really cares about their 2 stroke engine uses synthetic oil anyway.

Could have fooled me. Seems to me that most chainsaws are 2 stroke yet. So is my FS66 brush trimmer.

I use canned gas pre mixed. no ethanol in my saws,
