Hi there! I got the similar problem ont my 98' Tiger. I'm  from Sweden and I do'nt understand what seafoam is?
Does she start now?

Yours

Nick.

Seafoam is a US product, I've never found any in stock in the UK so Sweden might be the same. The nearest we have is a German made product called Profi Fuel Max (http://www.profi-products.de/en/products/profi-fuel-max/) so you can probably get that in Sweden.

I get my Seafoam from Ebay.uk

I tried the Profi Fuel Max, nowhere near as good as Seafoam in my opinion.

I looked on ebay in Feb and it wasn't available then  only Profi-fuel, which is good and did the trick.

I've used Profi Fuel and it seems to work, but my can of Seafoam arrived today.  just under £14 seems a bit steep, but that included free delivery by DPD and it can't be cheap to import from the USA.

Is the trick with Seafoam to add it as an additive to the tank or to soak the carb parts in it?

Cheers,

Dan

Pour it in the tank when you do a fill-up. One can is good for quite a lot of fuel so you do not need to use it all in one go. Repeat as necessary.

You can also add some to your crankcase oil prior to an oil change , run the engine to warm it up and then drain it. Supposed to help clean out the crud.

[Sin_Tiger]

I sprung for a 4 pack which makes it quite good value with the free delivery.

Me too, two going to France at the end of the week.

Anyone know if Seafoam have a use by date?
