    De-Carbon motor

    I have a re built 1999 175 FICHT and run xd100 oil, would I still have to decarbonise it?

    From what I have read here on the boards no decarb is required with xd-100.That is why I switched over to it I am Running it in a 97 150 Fast Strike.I am sure the Experts will be along shortly to confirm.

    With 100 you will not have to de-carb.....................Roger

    Rusty63 told me that running XD-100 would also eliminate the need for adding Carbon Gaurd to the fuel.
