 Why are you supposed to be careful with the squirt bottle with water, and yet
the Seafoam is poured into some kind of intake fitting on some cars, or thru
the gas tank?
I wonder what Seadfoam is?

A squirt bottle with water does a great job with carbon. I also like to use
Seafoam.

I've heard it done as well - but usually on top-mounted carburetors
(you just pour it directly down the center while the engine is
running).

With side-draft carbs, i'm not sure how you would accomplish the same
task without making a mess :P

I've also never done this, so I don't know if it's good/bad, etc.
