I saw a Youtuber do this, what's the purpose? I know you put that along with fuel but not with the oil.
... anybody want to buy some really expensive sprocket wax? I can hook you up.
When added to the oil, Sea Foam will clean up sludge, quiet noisy lifters, and remove oil varnish.
Since a can treats 15 litres (16 quarts) of oil, it provides two treatments for most vehicles.
The best method is to add the treatment between 800 and 1600 kilometres before the next oil change,
and then add the rest after you have changed the oil.
That way, the first treatment will get the big amounts of varnish and sludge out, and the second will keep things clean.
thinking my clutch might not like it
Okay.... but lets remember that automobile manufacturers state in their manuals never to do engine flushes or other activities that will remove and dislodge gunk and sludge from your lifters/engine because that sludge will then end up in more sensitive parts of the engine and clog up other things. Sludge attached to lifters will stay there for 20 years without clogging anything else.
So I take it that this sea foam in motorcycle engine is a no-no?s
cars don't have a wet clutch
perhaps if you had an ancient bike that had not been maintained
maybe try this once, just prior to an oil change
doing it continuously I can't see being a good idea
I used it in my truck once,cured my noisy lifter,changed oil after 100 k.
Save yourself some money - 10ml/l white naptha is all you need to clean a fuel system.I do use Sea Form occasionally as preventative maintenance as my 16 yo bike has 4 carbs.
I have never seen or heard of sludge in a bike engine so why bother. I wouldn't add this to my oil for a number of reasons. Just change your oil on a regular basis and you should never have any issues.
