I've been running Yammie four strokes for the last 8 years, but I'll tell you, Seafoam is a good "carb cleaner" for both 2 & 4 strokes. 4 Strokes are more or less an automobile engine turned on their side, but a 2 stroke is a different animal. Conventional "carb cleaners" or "injection cleaners" made for automotive use can damage a 2 stroke motor by acting as a solvent on the lubricating 2 stroke oil. So simply said, use products which are fuel friendly, like Seafoam, or a similar product, any of the outboard manufacturers offer products in this line. Tip 2, synthectic 2 stroke oil, I ran this stuff the last year and a half I had a 2 stroke (after the first tank or two, you WILL notice the difference).
