I was told by someone not to use it but everyone that I know does and has never had a problem with it.

I use it in everything that burns gas from boat to weed eater! I have never had to deal with ethanol fuel issues in anything I own. Great stuff

I have only found one problem with Sea Foam. Guys that think if a little is good, a lot should be really good. A no no because too much will actually swell the seals and gaskets in some fuel systems. Do not use more than recommended.

My tech recommended it to me years ago and I run it in everything I own with great results. You can always tell on a outboard when it is working by the way the motor sounds and runs but most important is in the hub of the prop will be clean. It will clean out all the carbon build up which is the number 1 killer of 2 stroke engines. IMO.
