      Couldn't have said it better. Hands down the best videos I've ever seen! Completely unbiased, a very humble guy whose motive is clearly to learn and help others learn. I love how every idea is tested rather than just theorized. From my experiences, even when youve done all the research in the world and considered all the influencing factors and the expected result appears to be black and white, the ACTUAL RESULTS can surprise. This guy's methods and experiments definitively answer so many things I've often wondered.

      I used the Saber mix in my 2001 GMC Sierra as recommended by a local mechanic one ounce to 5 gallons and it gummed up my throttle body. My gas pedal eventually jammed and I had to have the throttle body professionally cleaned. Regular AmsOIl is the best for the engine but not as a fuel additive. For that I do use AmsOIl PI.

    I think your soaking method helps a lot. It’s not so easy on some engines - But “filling” and hand-barring the engine around would probably be a good idea (warning: Risk of hydrolocking your engine). This is the method I use to store engines with fogging oil. Love your videos.

Even after cleaning the varnish by hand out of the carburetor it still seems that you can’t get it all. It would be great if you could get some chemicals gathered up to see what dissolves it the best. Thank you and keep up the awesome work.

      Berrymans Chemtool is the strongest stuff. We used it at the automotive machine shop I worked at years ago. But do yourself a favor, wear impermeable gloves, use it in a well ventilated area, and wear are chemical respirator when you are anywhere near the fumes, it is NOT good for you. I really stress the respirator for any chemical.

    To the question seafoam from your tests and my running home experiments. I found seafoam to be the best to revive and maintain engines. In the oil once in a while, in the gas once a year. 5 cars of various ages, 15 small motors of various ages and conditions and 4 medium sized engines. I even revived a dead lawnmower for my neighbor using seafoam. It’s not the only product I use but it is at the top of the list. Thank You! Keep testing.

    Thanks for another great video 👍. I have 3 vehicles and I have used the sea foam spray to decarbonize the values and pistons on two. One's a 99 Ford ranger with 272k on it. And the other is a 08 Chevy truck with about 125k. Both had great results. Not a big smoke show, however the ranger did have a couple of big "farts" . The third vehicle is a 15 beetle. I used the CRC di & turbo cleaner. It has about 46k. Still no big smoke show. Per instructions for both, I let them soak. Then the best part was the driving like you stole it for about 10 minutes. All three ran better than before the cleaning. But my beetle seemed to benefit the most. I do not have a scoop by the plug I pulled did look a little better. Thanks for that video 💪💯

    Love your channel, but really wish that when testing additional products similar to earlier ones you would show ALL the before and after photos so viewers wouldn't have to dig up the earlier videos to see what they showed.

    Great video. I personally would not worry about varnish build-up in the carb's float bowl as long as nothing is loose or flaking off in there. Usually, water and dirt are in the bowl, and they are definitely problems. I worked for Sears back in the day fixing mowers and other lawn equipment, so I have seen my share of small engines. I love the clear cylinder head footage that you included. I have to show that to my science-teacher wife for her class. The artsy slomo shots of the fuel bouncing around in the clear tank, and the smoke around the muffler, were a hoot! --Old Guy.

    I cut and maintain five (5) properties of friends and family. At the beginning of the season I mix a 25 gallon fuel caddy with BP Ultra, two (2) cans of Seafoam and double the recommended amount of Startron. Based on your research here, I started using the Seafoam and have had MUCH better performance results out of all my small engines, enabling me to stagger full tune-ups on a 2 - 3 year cycle to keep the cost down.
    1. I found the BP Ultra (93 octane) helps prevent knocking in the higher revving, hotter running 2-cycle engines and it is a much cleaner fuel; better filtered fuel from the start.
    2. Based on your research here and seeing your results, I now use Seafoam exclusively in both my small engines and my car. All my engines are running smother and more efficient. As for my 2005 Chevy Colorado that is 223,000+ miles, it has some of the best gas mileage and power it has ever had.
    3. The Startron helps stabilize the fuel to prevent the added 10% ethanol from absorbing moisture out of the air. Ultimately, it is that moisture absorption that hurts the small engines. I do not know if Startron has any 'cleaning' properties and would love to see a video on it.
    Thank You

      We do the same as you. We add an ounce or two of Seafoam per gal and an once of Startron. Seems to keep the small engines clean and happy. They always start on the first pull. I especially like it in the winter when I don't need to choke the snowblowers.
      I'm a bit confused on your post. Have you stopped using Startron all together and 100% Seafoam?

    As an AMSOIL dealer these are always good to see. I have to say the reason I became a dealer is because I bought products from a dealer and fell in love with the products. I use the API in my vehicles every oil change for the motor flush and 6k for the API and I notice a difference especially when I first switch a car over and clean the systems up for AMSOIL use.

      Get a garden hose and let it drip into the intake at an idle for a while. I imagine with a lawn mower engine you might want to mist it with a spray bottle. But the water droplets in the cylinder will help knock carbon deposits loose and clean things up.
      As sure as I mention this, someone will try it, flood their engine, hydrolock it and bend the connecting rods, crack a piston or cylinder head, wash the rings out and fill the crank case with water.

    This was very impressive. That engine was in desperate need of a carbon cleanup and this stuff really took care of business from the looks of it! Another 2-3 treatments and I wouldn't be surprised if this engine would be very clean. The downside is the messiness of the actual operation with the foam. BUT, for these results, I wouldn't even care. In my opinion, I have to say that this and Seafoam seem to really do the trick with MMO not far behind. Thank you for making such nice videos.

    I lucked out and found you did a video on this subject. I vote for power foam and the PI works very well in a vehicle because of the miles you drive vs the time running in a small engine with one quart of fuel. Last month I purchased a vehicle with a Chevy 454 that had a bad case of after run, so much so it was difficult to shut off, I had to put it in gear and turn it off and then I had to stand on the brakes!
    Twenty gallons and one bottle of PI later no more after run. I took it to the California smog station and the emissions were on the super low end of the emissions scale. One bottle every 4,000 miles does the trick.
    Great video as usual!

    Todd, I don't think what you saw inside the fuel bowl was varnish. On slot of Small Engines they have a protective coating on the inside of the fuel bowl to protect against rust. Overtime this coating comes off. I believe ethanol has alot to do with the removing of this protective layer. As always awesome video.

    With direct injection engines (virtually all vehicle engines sold now), the intake valves are where the serious carbon buildup problem will be, and that is how I'd like to see these liquid engine cleaning solutions tested. My impression is that media-blasting will continue to be what's required to remove heavy intake valve deposits from direct-injected engines.
