Sorry, taking up band width here.<br /><br />When I decarb, the motor should be running in water tank or on muffs? I'm thinking some back pressure in the exhaust is good. Instructions probably on the can but I haven't gotten one yet. Thanks.

Should not make a difference. The ideal would be to do it when the boat is in the water so that when the decarb is done you could blow it out with a good run.

I like solittle's idea. Pack a cooler, throw some poles in tha' boat, run to yer favorite fishin hole, shoot the decarb in the motor and fish for however long the can says to let her sit. Crank up, blow her out and fish some more. Sounds like a nice day! Course' some of the cans say 3-16 hours for a good soak. :D :D
