    decarbing old Johnson 175

    Ive read a bunch of info on what to use and not to use I have a 1990 Johnson 175 thats runs great. My question is what kind of additive can I mix with the fuel to decarb. The VRO is currently hooked so both of my tanks have straight gas in it. The motor has never been decarbed before according to the previous owner. Thanks guys. The info on here is priceless.

    You can use BRP Engine tuner (follow directions on can) or you could mix XD-100 at 50 to 1 and it will decarb for you while you run.

    Rusty where can I pick up the XD-100 or the BRP? At C%O maybe or somewhere else?

    CandO 2 would be a short drive from MT. Juliet plus you would get to meet the Parts Chick.
