Elusive · 07-14-2005, 08:05 AM

I started using Ring Free this year on my 2002's (not in the manual, but learned on THT).* Should I do a decarb ?* If so, how ?* Thanks

How many hours?*If you can shine a light in through the spark plug hole or better yet if you have on of those scopes you can look and see how much carbon is on the piston head.

Either way....it does not hurt to decarb......

Its getting late..........I think i am going to go home and "decarb" with a Bud Light!

Andy - I know what product is used to decarb you, what do you recommend for product & method on the engines ? BTW 300 hours. Thanks, Gary

Before I would go through a manual de-carb with a product similar to Yamaha's combustion cleaner, I would see if I could visually inspect through the spark plug hole with a flashlight any carbon on the piston head. If it looks clean then just do a shocker treatment with Ring free and*portable gas source.

Or if you run your tanks down below a 18th level*or so shock the remaining fuel and do it that way.
