Hi,

Walmart or any Auto store will have it.
You can also see videos of it being used on youtube.

Well that's the second time someone said to use Sea Foam. Never heard of it, but where is a good place to get it? I'd like to try this before I wrap her up for winter. I have to run it to drain the lines before winter, so might as well do this to.

Thanks much.



Most Auto Parts stores carry it.. Napa and Advanced carry it...

Regards,
Chris

Hey guys,, I would first check for an air leak or the vent on your tank,, but I think your problem has to do with electrical,, you say your engine will start and idle but when you put a load on it,, it dies,,I would check your plugs,, power paks,, Have you ever had a spark moduel go on your car,, its fine when its cold but it dies when the car heats up,, thats what I would look at,, power packs like to go,,also when you do get it up and running it does not have the balls it use to have,,, RIGHT,,,,, its your moduels,, your best bet is to take it to somebody to look at,,,, if not look for the power packs on ebay for your engine,,, they are not cheap,,, but they are easy to put in,,, good luck my friend,,, JIM

Ok, thanks for the idea Jim. I'll look in our repair manual to see what they look like, then I'll check e-bay and Amazon for some pricing. Still gonna try Sea foam in the spring when get her ready to go out for the first time. Can't wait already.
