Re: sea foam deep creep

Decarb Process:<br />Your intent is to REMOVE the existing carbon buildup from the cylinders, heads, and rings, a spray decarb solvent product, such as SeaFoam Deep Creep, is needed to do the decarb process. Some people use one can per cylinder. Free moving rings are what seals your cylinders and gives you compression. Compressed and stuck rings equals loss of compression, and eventually, engine failure.<br /><br />Run engine at fast idle, with engine running, slowly spray liberal amount into each carb, its gonna smoke up the place,<br />spray for a couple minutes, now spray a larger amount into carbs until engine chokes out and stops.<br /><br />Remove spark plugs and spray decarb liberally into each cylinder, install the spark plugs, let it soak for an hour. <br /><br />Start the engine and run at medium throttle, or if at the lake, run it at full throttle. It won't hurt to spray some more through the carbs. Run it for atleast 10 minutes to flush the crud out of your engine. Now remove and clean, or replace the spark plugs. <br /><br />It works well to do the spraying, the night before you go to the lake. This way you can let it soak overnight, and really flush it out at the lake.<br /><br />Don't do this in front of the garage door or the house, unless you want it coated with greasy crud.

SmokyForce, I would think one can of Deep Creep or Power Tune should work on your engine. I own a Force (Gamefisher) 9.9 and I run SeaFoam in every tank as preventative maintenance to keep the carbon away. I blew a lot of crud out when I first decarbed it.

Re: sea foam deep creep

smokyforce, I have a 1995 70 force, I use one can of decarb for the whole engine. I decarb quite often compared to most folks. I like to keep my force running well, as I don't think I want to pay to have it rebuilt or replaced.<br /><br />Some guys use one can per cylinder. Seems like a lot to me, especially if you have a 6 cylinder engine.
