Fairy floss should work as well then .Now we have fuels that clean the engine and if that is not making you happy try putting a little two stroke oil in each cylinder ,removing the coil wire turning the engine over ands let it sit overnight .Then the next day or night after…

Purchased a can the other day and soaked my parts over night to remove carbon. Nothing, didn't do a thing, ended up using a wire brush to remove the carbon. In all farness I didn't use heat, just room temperature. I see application of this stuff to clean out the carbon build-up inside the engine, but all I see is bunch of smoke. I see kids use on their hot rods, maybe its more for show.


I undersand that Seafoam is unexcelled at cleaning out the owners wallet.
