i know the fuel additive thread has been done to death
but i was reading the can last night n it says u can put that stuff in everything
primary case,oil,gas
i was wondering if adding a little to my gas will really take away the rough idle and low rpm
it says it cleans the injectors and stops rough idle
anyone tryed or use this stuff?
if not i guess i could always use it to remove the blue from the header

Donnie:

You didn't drink some first and THEN read the instructions, did you.

You're not seriously considering putting anything in your machine called "Sea Foam" are you? The next thing you know, you'll be posting about Pixie Dust Magic Tire rub...cajun flavor.

; )

Sea foam has been around a long time, I have never used it & never will. Sounds too much like snake oil. The old timers swear by it because oil & gas qulity years ok wasnt very good & maybe this crap actually did help some. But in todays marketplace its not needed & will probably hurt more than it will help.

Fully,

Good one!

I also use fool in the fuel tank and ole on the oil tank.

Seriously though...I can imagine the fools like to run back and forth when gassing/braking since our gas tanks are rather long and level with a tubelike shape. I just don't know about putting anything that might restrict fuel flow at any point between the filler hole and the fuel injectors though...

Hmm, get some Seafoam, Nology wires, an intake fuel turbulator, a fitch fuel catalyst, a svs snorkle..wonder if it works for scuba diving?..and some slick 50 & before you know it even an XB9 will be putting down at least 136rwhp.

Donnie, exactly who is "plenty of people"? You dont actually believe the crazy 5hit on his cute little website do you? Corey is half of those people, he logs in under different names
& praises himself & his snake oil.

And cant afford his crap? LOL. Who's the one with the XB9 that is bitching because its slow & obviously cant afford any of his snake oil garbage?

Dude, thats the same 2 bikes. They are painted a different color on each side. I guess the #83 on all "4": D bikes really wouldnt give that away would it?

So 1 sucker is using Coreys junk? Racers will often times use anything at their disposal if its free.

Trolling? You are the one who tried to pass of one riders bikes as being 4 different ones. You have something going with Corey on the side that maybe your wife should know about?

I may be wrong but most of the time when racers put big letters on their bikes promoting a product they are getting compensated to do so. If it said Mike's Video on would that mean that Mikes was the best or that Mike shelled out some bucks to the race team? I for one am going to wait on the dyno results, but I don't expect much from Corey's stuff. JMHO

Psst Donnie, those arent Coreys pipes they are TI's from Orient Express & so far the couple of half @ssed dynos we have seen show that the pipe sucks.

Yea he peddles em tho, just like all the other snake oil.

I give you solid credible info & thats the way you act?

Personally I could give a rats @ss about the stack dyno tests. I do know Coreys snake oil deal didnt win. So if you aint in first that makes you a loser.

Seafoam works great, outstanding injector cleaner, and helps remove water(from condensation) from gas with using alcohol(like heet) it has in the past made and engine run smother once added, however this is not always the case, i use it in the wifes car every 5k or so miles, just as a cleaner, but i have the injectors cleaned every 50k, i use the stuff in my Buell, HD, Kawi, and feel it works great, but this is my .02
