Have you topped up the cylinders since you first added it? If not It might be a good idea to do so.


Slow piston soak, would you use something other than MMO or is MMO (kerosene) ideal for that?


I considered seafoam also but I went with MMO. I do need to add more I just haven't been thinking about it lately. The engine swap is going to be much more long term than I had hoped. I'm open to suggestions for something readily available besides MMO or seafoam though.
