I bought a used boat in August and it had a four stroke kicker on it. I started it and ran it several times, first to make sure it worked and a couple other times during the season just to keep everything moving. The last day I used the boat, I put sea foam in the gas, per the can's ratios. I ran the big motor getting to and from where I was going to fish, which should have gotten treated fuel through the system. Then I ran the kicker. I had been meaning to try motor trolling all year, so decided to use the kicker for an hour or so doing just that. After about 20-30 minutes I noticed the motor was running very smooth, and I think it had to be that the sea foam was working. I was not rough before, but after running the sea foam treated gas through it, there was an improvement.
