decarbing

[tav]

i want to do a decarbing on my 2004 40 h.p 2stroke , been reading a few treads on how to do it ....pretty simple i'd say.
deep creep, engine tuner seem to do it from what I was reading. after I do the decarbing and soak time can I just
run it with muffs cuz to blow it all out , I can't get to a lake right away to run it at WOT.

You can do it at the lake and it will smoke like hell at first. I would bring a new set of spark plugs and change them following the de-carb. I use Sea Foam to decarb my 2 stroke outboards

ok.....but can I do the procedure at home with out going to the lake?

 

[Bob_VT]

YES As long as you are on muffs it will work fine AND smoke even more since the prop will be open to the air. I have had neighbors come over to see what the "fire" was since there was so much smoke.

ok....this is the first time doing this. so I after doing the decarbing and smoking up my yard......lol I want to let it sit over night to soak in....right?
then the next day run with muffs and run all the cabon crap out. or I can take it to the lake and run it, will it smoke during this time?

Not like it did while spraying the seafoam into the carb throat, but may a bit. I prefer a high speed WOT run on lake to blast it all out properly. Bring spare plugs as stated.
