Once again I save the day.<br /> I was traveling to a good unexposed part of a lake, about 12 miles out from civilisation, when I noticed an old man flagging me down from a distance. Turnes out he was having motor problems and wanted me to tow him back, 12 miles.<br /> Knowing me, I keep a tool box with me everywhere I go, you should too, and went ahead and tried to diagnose his problem on the spot. I found that his fuel pump was pumping good, and his carbs were adjusted correctly. All plugs were sparking so I diagnosed a clogged jet. <br /> I had a 1/2 can of Sea Foam stored from my last monthly preventive maint. and sprayed some in his carborators while his motor was running. When he went to accelarate afterwards, his motor jumped out of the water like it has never done before as he said. <br /> To get to the point, before anyone posts a problem on this post about a suspected fuel problem, run some sea foam deep creep in your motor. This stuff cleans your fuel system out. <br /> I get on here alot and see alot of the same old problems and other people reply telling others to use sea foam, such as myself, so to save ourselves some hearache, keep a can of Sea Foam Deep Creep on board. You can get this stuff at NAPA.
