For INJECTOR cleaning machines, use 50/50 mixed with gas.Use 100% Sea Foam for diesel injector cleaning machines or when priming diesel fuel filters.For 2-stroke pre-mix, add 2 ounces per gallon.For stabilizing fuel, add 1 ounce per gallon.treatment recommendations
For cars and trucks driven regularly: add to fuel every 3,000 miles. fOR MAXIMUM CLEANING, ADD A FULL 16 OZ CAN OF SEA FOAM TO A LOW TANK (2-3 GALLONS) AND DRIVE UNTIL ALMOST EMPTY BEFORE REFUELING.

Pour Sea Foam in your fuel tank to clean and lubricate your entire fuel system. It works through fuel injectors and carburetors to remove harmful residues and deposits from fuel passageways, intake valves, pistons, and chamber areas.
For cleaning a gasoline or diesel fuel system, it’s safe to add more Sea Foam to fuel. In fact, the more Sea Foam you add to fuel, the better it cleans!
Made from petroleum ingredients, Sea Foam is safe and effective when used in all types of gasoline or diesel fuels and fuel blends. Sea Foam does NOT contain harsh detergent or abrasive chemicals that can harm your engine or fuel system components.

RELATED QUESTIONS
Can I use Sea Foam in my regular gas for an automobile?
Thanks for the question! Yes, you can absolutely use Sea Foam Motor Treatment in your automobile! It’s safe and effective in any gas engine. Just follow the instructions on the can.
Here’s a little more info on how to use it:
I like to wait until the tank is low (1/4 -1/8 tank), add the whole can, and then drive for at least 10-20 minutes before refueling. It’s safe to add a high concentration like that and it works very well for cleaning fuel residues and deposits.
Can I use SEAFOAM in my diesel storage tank that will supply my house oil furnace?
Is it safe for a two stroke engine such as a chainsaw or leaf blower? I would like to run a strong mixture with Sea Foam to clean as well as storage for the winter months. If so what is the best ratio for the mix?
Hi Jacob,
Thanks for the question! Yes, Sea Foam Motor Treatment is safe and effective in any gas or diesel engine, including your two strokes.
You can use up to a 1:2 ratio of Sea Foam to fuel. Here’s what I’d do:
- Add the Sea Foam to a small amount of fuel (8-16 oz of fuel).
- Run the engine for a few minutes to draw the treated fuel through the system.
- Let it soak overnight.
- Run it again for a few minutes before storing it for winter.
I have a Cat skidsteer 242b. It says to clean injectors to use 100% Sea Foam Motor Treatment. What do you mean by that?
Good question, Jenny.
That’s referring to priming the filter/housing with Sea Foam to clean fuel injectors.
Here’s a video on a diesel truck: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=544E_X2oUgM
Here’s a summary of the instructions:
Getting started:
- Start and warm up the engine to operating temperature, then shut off.
- Remove the primary fuel filter and drain the filter/filter housing. Though not required, we recommend installing a new filter.
- Depending on filter type, fill entire filter/housing cavity with straight Sea Foam.
- Install the new filter while making sure there is no air in the filter or housing.
- With the filter primed, start the engine and let it run for one to two minutes, then shut off the engine.
- Allow five to fifteen minutes for the Sea Foam to hot soak into the deposit buildup.
- After the soak period, restart the engine and be prepared to drive/operate for approximately 30 miles or 30 minutes. Don’t be afraid to run the engine hard when possible and safe. An engine under load produces the necessary heat and compression for optimal cleaning.
Hope that helps and don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any other questions!
Can I use Sea Foam in a snowblower that won’t start?
Thanks for the question, Marco. Check out the page on our site about getting a snow blower started with Sea Foam: https://seafoamworks.com/fix-a-hard-starting-snow-blower/
If the snowblower won’t start because of varnish in the fuel system (which is common), Sea Foam will help.
