HOW TO USE SEA FOAM FOR ENGINE STORAGE AND STABILIZING FUEL
BENEFITS
STABILIZES STORED FUEL UP TO 2 YEARSHELPS RESIST EVAPORATIONPRESERVES IGNITION VAPORSADDS PROTECTIVE LUBRICITYPREVENTS GUM AND VARNISHDIRECTIONS
ADD AT LEAST 1 OUNCE OF SEA FOAM FOR EACH GALLON OF FUEL IN THE TANKRUN THE ENGINE LONG ENOUGH FOR THE TREATMENT TO WORK THROUGH THE ENTIRE FUEL SYSTEMADDING A HIGHER RATIO OF SEA FOAM TO A LOW AMOUNT OF FUEL WILL INCREASE THE CLEANING CONCENTRATION (up to a 1:2 ratio of sea foam to fuel)if you prefer to store your engine with a full tank of fuel, you can alwyas fill the tank after you run the high concentration through the fuel systemSUMMARY
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 much Sea Foam per gallons of gasoline?
Thanks for the question, Blaine! Here’s an overview. It depends why you’re using it:
- For preventative maintenance/fuel storage: 1 oz per gallon
- For fuel system cleaning/overcoming a fuel-related engine problem: 2 or more ounces per gallon. To maximize cleaning, add a full can (16 oz) to a low tank (2-3 gallons) and drive until almost empty before refueling.
Does Sea Foam have ethanol in it?
What is the difference between Sea Foam and Sea Foam Spray?
Thanks for the question, Shahid! Here’s the difference:
Sea Foam Motor Treatment:
- How to use it: pour it in your fuel tank or oil crankcase
- What you can use it in: any gas or diesel engine. It’s safe and effective in any kind of gas or diesel fuel, and any kind of motor oil.
- What it does: cleans fuel and oil residues to help your engine run cleaner, run better, and last longer
Sea Foam Spray:
- How to use it: apply it through a gas throttle body or carburetor
- What you can use it in: gas engines only. Particularly useful in gasoline direct injection engines. NOT for use in diesel.
- What it does: Sea Foam Spray is an aerosol version of Sea Foam Motor Treatment. Sea Foam Spray works through a gas engine’s upper air intake to dissolve harmful deposits and residue buildup from intake runners, intake valves, and combustion chamber areas. It’s especially helpful for cleaning intake valves in gasoline direct injection engines (GDI).
In short, both products will clean critical engine areas to help your engine run better and last longer.
How long does Sea Foam keep fuel fresh?
Hey Stephen,
Good question! Sea Foam Motor Treatment will keep fuel fresh for up to two years. More specifically, it will preserve ignition vapors and prevent fuel gum and varnish from forming.
Note: Sea Foam won’t “restore” old fuel. Add it to fresh fuel before storage.
How long does Sea Foam act as a stabilizer when added to gas can with fresh non-ethanol fuel?
Good question. Sea Foam Motor Treatment will stabilize stored fuel up to 2 years. Sea Foam will help preserve ignition vapors and prevent fuel from degrading.
Here are a few things to keep in mind:
- It’s best to add Sea Foam to fresh fuel (rather than fuel that’s already been in a gas can for a while).
- Sea Foam can’t “restore” old fuel.
- Add at least 1 oz of Sea Foam per gallon of fuel that you’re storing.
Hope that helps and let me know if you have any other questions!
