Yea true. Just like seafoam has worked wonders for me but the mccc gave me misfires and killed my o2s. Others swear by the mccc but not my experience with it lol. Never had the issue with seafoam out of the MANY times useing it. Idk man its a mystery......

The problem with the boat is not the seafoam, its the crap in the tank. If I was your buddy I would get that tank checked asap.

Is the tank made of fiberglass by any chance? I'm not sure if seafoam is safe with fiberglass. Does anyone else know?
