I have an 87 60 hp 2 stroke Johnson engine that runs great(kow), albeit gasses out on idle(question for my next thread), but am exploring ways to maintain its life. I Defog in winter etc., change plugs , use stabilizers etc etc.but came across threads mentioning decarbing. I am the 3rd owner, and know it hasn't been decarbed, if ever, for at least 15 years. Is it a good idea to decarb? Could I potentially cause more harm than good at this point ...if there is a lot of build up, can enough of it gunk something up? It also still has a functioning inboard fuel tank.
If yes, should I go with omc spray? Seafoam? I'm wondering if it's better not to mess with more additives in an old tank?thanks.
