Great stuff for decarboning engines and mostly used on older technology carbed strokes that have a tendency to carbon up over the years.
Spray it in your carbs while engine is running at normal temps until it practically chokes the motor. Shut motor off and let it sit for a half hour and take it for a decent run under load.
I would do this in the spring. dewinterize as you normally would and leave the old plugs in to burn off your fogging oil when you start it up in the spring. Seafoam it, take for a run and then after all the seafoam is brned off put new plugs in.

I've been using Sea-foam and Sta-bil both at the same time for years in every engine I own and have never had engine problems or carb problems with anything.
I'm talking weed whackers, lawn mowers, garden tractor, snow blower, leaf blowers, out board motor, 3 atvs, and a generator.
Not one single carb or foul gas problem...ever!
I had a 22ft Grady White that sat on blocks in the driveway for three years with a brand new Merc 200HP two stroke with 90 gallons of gas in the tank. I loaded it with a mixture of Sea-foam and Sta-bil and three years later it started right up and ran flawlessly. Todays gas is so bad, you better be putting something in it all year long, not just at storage time.
I even occasionally put some in my two cars and the truck, but not as often as the other engines which aren't used on a daily basis.
An ounce of prevention really is better then a pound of cure....!
Two thumbs up...

Sea foam makes a product called deep kreep. Basically it's sea foam in an airasol form. Put the liquid sea foam in the gas tank, spray the deep kreep into the carbs and cylinders.

Best too if the engine is at operating temp when you spray into clylinders or you can spray it while the engine is running right into the carbs then turn it off, let sit for 1/2 then run the engine.
If you have a lot or carbon build up the engine will smoke like hell when you got to restart it.

I would warm the engine up, take the spark plugs out, spray in each of the cylinders, crank the engine a few times to distribute the stuff in the cylinders, reinstall plugs, wait a half hour for the stuff to do it's thing and run it.
