    SeaFoam is 10-20% Isopropyl Alcohol and distilled water.

    i don't care if it's made out of mule hockey...it DOES remove carbon. i ran an engine on the hose with a treatment of seafoam and the ground was black in 10 minutes. i'd say ring free, power tune, and all the rest are basically the same stuff.

    Where does the idea of "water" (of any kind) come into play ?? The MSDS does not list "water" as an ingredient ... so I'm just wondering why people assume there's water in the mixture ??

    I bought an old tractor this spring. Upon further investigation,1 cylinder was about 60 lbs low on compression. After a leakdown test,I concluded the rings were carboned up. It was either re ring it,or try something else. I ran seafoam in the oil for about 2 hrs. Then drained the oil and changed it. Compression is identical on all cylinders now,and has been running like a top all summer.

    All isopropyl alcohol contains water but not all isopropyl alcohol is the same .

    That will answer some questions for you .
    I always said that stuff was the baddest stuff in the world , Now i know that if you put holy water on a womans belly she will become with child but if you rub this stuff on a cats nads he will pass a train
