Piston Squirter finally succumbs!

Everyone who has opened a case knows the problem; all the piston squirters check out fine except one or two. Then the fight is on. Everything is tried, from carb cleaner, to air pressure, to flames. I was at my wits end, with several Bay Area Pelicans enroute to my place for the "Case Joining" event, and still nothing but a burble from the last squirter. I made a last ditch trip to Grand Auto for inspiration, and picked up a couple more cans of brake cleaner, etc. On the shelf was an inconspicuous can of "Sea Foam", and the words on the label that caught my eye were "Injector Cleaner", "Carburetor Cleaner", "Carbon Cleaner", etc. The label goes on to insist that this stuff will clear any engine of any problem known to man. It's a ten-dollar gamble, I think to myself.

I am not kidding, I put THREE DROPS of this stuff into the passageway behind the squirter, waited 60 seconds, and hit it with about 80lbs of air, and WHOOSH!

I am a SEA FOAM FAN FOREVER!
