So what is Seafoam? Obviously a fuel additive, but what is in it? |

Very good stuff. Put some in your tank today. Unless you have a Super F, your bike needs it. You can thank us later...  |

i mean, i thought...ehhh, i will give it a try, cant hurt, my bike is running well, but wow, the stuff really works. i poured in half a can, and started noticing a difference in ooooo maybe 10-15 miles.
im hooked, and will use it often in everything i own...tractors, cars, bikes.....
this is no ordinary fuel additive!!!

Available in most any auto parts store. If you cant find it locally, check marine supply companies. Can also be purchased online.  |

I've got some Chevron Techron in my tank now, I haven't seen much of an improvement yet. I think I'll try some of this stuff next. I'm hoping to NOT have to pull the carbs apart! |

Keep at it with Seafoam. I've been lucky enough to not have to pull the carbs on either of the 900F's I bought. The last one I bought would only run on two cylinders and one of the dead cylinders had oil and/or fuel leaking out at the header (gasket MIA).
Good spark, fresh clean fuel and some Seafoam can do wonders - even if you end up having to pull the carbs, for the price of a couple of cans of Seamfoam it's worth trying first. |

Bought a can today at the local NAPA.
I plan to experiment with my 18 HP Garden Tractor that needs 1/3 choke to run properly. |

I called them, it's a privately held company, there is no stock.  |
