HOW TO USE SEA FOAM FOR ENGINE STORAGE AND STABILIZING FUEL
BENEFITS
DIRECTIONS
SUMMARY
Sea Foam Motor Treatment works to stabilize stored fuel up to 2 years. Adding Sea Foam to stored tanks helps fuel resist evaporation, preserves ignition vapors, adds protective lubricity, and prevents the formation of gum and varnish in fuel systems. Gum and varnish residues are the most common cause of poor engine function. Using Sea Foam in stored fuel will help your engines start easier and last longer.

RELATED QUESTIONS
How will regularly using Sea Foam effect the fuel mileage of my 2005 Honda GL1800 Goldwing motorcycle? Will long-term use harm it’s engine? Should I instead use Sea Foam every other tank full or spread it out even further?
Thanks for the question, Steve!
Sea Foam in your fuel can actually help recover lost fuel efficiency, or keep your Goldwing running as efficiently as possible.
Sea Foam Motor Treatment is safe to use in every tank of fuel. It doesn’t have any harsh chemicals, and it’s made with 100% safe petroleum cleaning and lubricating ingredients that can’t harm parts or components.
Adding Sea Foam to your fuel tank regularly will keep the fuel system and critical engine areas clean, which will help recover lost fuel efficiency or prevent it from dropping.
If you’re riding it regularly during the season, you could add Sea Foam to every other tank of fuel. If it sits for while, add Sea Foam to every tank of fuel to prevent the fuel from degrading and forming varnish and deposits. If you store it for the winter, be sure to add some Sea Foam to the fuel tank before your last ride of the season.
Let me know if you have any other questions – happy to help!

Sea Foam
Would using Sea Foam with gas that already has Sta-Bil in it be ok?
How much Sea Foam should I use for long term storage in a gas tank?
How much Sea Foam should I add to the fuel for putting a Polaris General 1000 side by side in storage for the winter?
Good question. Add at least 1 oz of Sea Foam per gallon of fuel in the tank. It’s safe and effective to add more than that ratio, though, as a high concentration works very well to clean out the entire fuel system as well as to stabilize fuel.
Here’s what I’d recommend:
Add at least 1 oz of Sea Foam per gallon in the tank. For best results, run the tank down until there’s about a gallon of fuel left, and add an entire 16 oz can of Sea Foam Motor Treatment to the tank.
Then, run the engine long enough for the treatment to work through the entire fuel system (about 5-10 minutes of idling).
From there, you can either store it with the fuel tank partially empty or full. Sea Foam will stabilize your fuel for up to two years.
I have an unused, unopened can of Sea Foam purchased a few years back. Does it expire?
