    Hi, I read a lot of posts relating to carburettors and how seafoam keeps things going until you decide to clean them properly.

    If I google it, in the UK, nothing comes up. The closest I can get is "Wynns carburettor and injector cleaner".

    Does anyone know if I can get it or if it is marketed under a different name here?

    Thanks.

    well let me look at the can i have in the garage. i will let u know if they have a website ..............www.seafoamsales.com. they offer a pourable soulution for use in oil resevoirs and gas tanks. for internal cleaning. if a spray application is desirable i.e. for injection into vacuum lines,fuel lines,injection lines etc u may wish to order sea foam deep creep. hope this helps ya

    Can't buy it in the UK, however I believe that the closest is Forte http://www.forteuk.co.uk/

    However I have not used it myself so cannot tell you if it any good.

    Markie - if you are getting some sent I'll be up for a few cans if not too expensive - PM me when you get an answer.

    Hey Markie,
    go to a boat repair store and ask for "marine carb tune" or similar.
    Tell him you're looking for something like SeaFoam.
    Talk to the guy there that does the carbs. buy what he uses.

    I'm pretty much convinced we can just use camping stove fuel anyway.

    I asked if they would post a few cans to me here in Spain and the answer was no, something to do with postal restrictions, so I would assume they won't post to the UK. But if they do I'd be interested in a tin or two.

    The answere seems to be "No"!. I tried googling carburettor cleaning and was taken to an "XS1100" homepage which advised that, as it was highly flamable, you cannot ship it.

    No reply from seafoam sales, so I'll keep looking!

    Is this stuff comparable to "Berryman's B12 Chemtool" that they sell at Autozone?
