SUMMARY
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 on a 2016 Dodge Ram with over 100,000 miles?
Yes, you can use Sea Foam Motor Treatment. It’s safe and effective in a 2016 Dodge Ram with that mileage. Just follow the instructions on the can.
Here’s a little more info on how to use it:
- Sea Foam Motor Treatment in fuel. I like to wait until the tank is low (1/4 -1/8 tank), add the whole 16 oz can, and then drive for at least 10-20 miles before refueling. It’s safe to add a high concentration like that and it works very well for cleaning fuel residues and deposits.
- Sea Foam Motor Treatment in oil. Add 1 ounce of Sea Foam per quart of oil in the crankcase. We recommend adding it 100-300 miles before your next oil change. That gives the Sea Foam enough time to circulate and clean, and it allows all the reliquefied oil residues to be drained away with the old oil.
You could also try High Mileage Motor Treatment. It’s made specifically for stubborn residues and deposits in higher-mileage vehicles. It’s a great cleaner!
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!

The gas tank on my 2024 Hyundai Tuscon plug-in hybrid is smaller than that in most comparable cars. Should I still add one bottle to a 1/8 filled tank, and then drive 20 miles followed by fill-up?

High Mileage Motor Treatment would also work well in the the fuel and oil. It’s made specifically for stubborn residues and deposits in higher-mileage vehicles. It’s a great cleaner!
Will Sea Foam clean clogged carburetor jets ?
Yes, Sea Foam will clean carburetor jets. Here’s what to do for a gummed up carburetor:
- Check condition of spark plug(s). 2. Drain or siphon the old fuel from the tank. 3. Drain each carburetor bowl. (see IMPORTANT if not easily accessible) 4. After removing gasoline from the tank and carburetor, add a mixture of Sea Foam followed by 8 ounces of fresh gasoline (1 to 2 ratio). 5. With the cleaning mixture in the fuel tank, crank/prime/rope-pull the engine to draw the cleaning mix into the carburetor(s). 6. Allow engine to sit and soak – Overnight to 24 hours if possible, 48 to 72 hours when necessary. 7. Once the engine starts and runs, Sea Foam in the tank will continue to dissolve residues as fuel is drawn through the carburetor. 8. Add more fresh fuel when ready to operate engine under load (working engine). IMPORTANT: If unable to drain carburetor or old fuel remains in tank, remove spark plugs and add a high concentration of Sea Foam and fresh fuel to the tank. Follow steps 5 and 6 with spark plugs removed.
