Seafoam-ing a DT125

Calum122 · Guru

What is seafoam?

M4rcust · DTR Newbie

This is seafoam.

Calum122 · Guru

Lol. Sounds a bit like snake oil to me.

M4rcust · DTR Newbie

Thanks for the reply! Hopefully someone else has come across this, wouldn't want to just throw it in the bin without trying it.

Yeah I've never heard of it before. But I know that a lot of these products are just a scam. If it's beneficial to the engine then you know sure as hell the oil companies would put it in their oils to make theirs the best. That or they would sell it as a premium product. Either way it wouldn't be some trade secret. If it's worth something it'll sell.

Agree, same old bull ****, if it was good we would know!!!

Whats next.... We know how to turn water into petrol but we are the only ones who know, cause it is a big secret and nobody will copy us cause we are so awsome!!

BOLLOCKS! It'll just eat your engine from the inside out over time.

Bascally a shot of salty sea water that corrodes the crank barings to created more room to add more rapid power bands i put about 5 cans in now im running 7 power bands. its wicked. I also drank a tin now i **** out small sea crustations.. is well fun

+1 It's a quick fix if it does work. Better to strip and clean it properly. Would imagine it would wash the oil away on the 2 stroke. I'll avoid any additive myself.

Aye yea defo keep away from normal carbs especially 2t. Think it only really works for proper efi engines to clean out the tiny spray nozzles on injectors. Thinks its all bull**** tho think its just shot of high octane juice that makes u feel like its improved running wen it hasnt done anything
