Opinions on Sea Foam Use in Diesel

[robertsapp]

Information on the Sea Foam website says to fill your fuel filter bowl with Sea Foam and run it through your diesel to decarbonize the cylinders, free stuck rings, and clean the injectors. I'm tempted to try it, but I'm curious if anyone out there has done it and/or has any advice on the subject. I've used it in my cars and gas powered boat for years, but never thought to put it in my diesel tank or use it straight as a decarbonizer.

I have been using it for years on my diesel vehicles ( Mercedes 5cyl and Chevy Suburban 8cyl ) and now , on my boat Yanmar 2cyl , and the black smoke that comes out of the exhaust for a minute , or so , when I run it shows that.....it works !!!

Can't speak directly to the Diesel question but I know it works great on motorcycles!

I haven't used it on diesel, but I used it to decarb my '85 outboard. Worked great, & now I use it on a maintenance basis. I would not hesitate to use it on a diesel (when I get a sailboat again).
