    Default Motor question???????


    Is it ok to use seafoam and/or stabil in a 4 stroke motor. I know it is in a 2 stroke, but was just wondering about a 4 stroke?

    Put the Stabil Marine in the gas, it's ok. But Startron is better.

    in the gas either is fine/good, just follow the recommended treatment schedule on the bottle/can. You can put seafoam in the oil to help clean the engine internals BUT only do it right before you change the oil in a 4 stroke. Make sure you read the instructions before doing this. do not run the 4 stroke for extended periods of time with seafoam in the oil.
    GO BIG ORANGE !

    I meant to behave, but there were just way too many other options available at the time.

    Startron is said to be better at protecting against ethanol. I dunno. Ran seafoam in my yammie 60 4 stroke for 2 years with excellent results. Have run it in every 2 stroke I've owned. However, just ran out of the last $4 can I had and now it's $10 a can at walmart. Bought a bottle of marine stability instead. Forget what I paid....think $10? and it treats 150 gallons of fuel. Therefore, I've switched.

    G3, it's a good thang I'm tired or I'd smack you.

    I've ram the marine stabil in mine fern couple of years now, with no problem. I started using it when my fuel line collapsed.

    Hey DD and Hollic.
