Re: Seafoam for fogging
Fogging is done to prevent rusting of the internal parts, cylinders, bearings, etc. Best stuff to use is a reputable fogging oil made for the purpose, something that will cling and not evaporate. OK, so many people get away with just a heavy shot of two cycle oil. That is better than nothing but that stuff tends to evaporate. However, much depends on where it is stored, temp & humidity, time, etc. The big "gotcha" is if there is any trace of water ingestion into the powerhead where it isn't supposed to be. That could be from leaking seals, gaskets, porosities, whatever. The fogging can well make the difference between surviving the storage, or winding up with a seized powerhead next spring.......or even in some cases a couple of years in case of unforeseen and unfortunate circumstances. I'd opt for the few bucks and time spent to do it right.
