    Jerry, what the heck is that stuff!? 🙂
    Not from Seafoam or ethanol fuel in my opinion. Likely junk in the fuel line, which the ethanol fuel and seafoam cleaned out and pushed into the carb perhaps? Like I believe, ethanol gas and seafoam are both great cleaners. I don’t think they should be blamed though for doing their job, if the fuel system is dirty. Just my thoughts, you were there, and are far more experienced than myself. I have seen junk like that come off the inside of the cheap grey fuel lines before however?

    A friend of mine spoke about e fuel like it was satans brew. I did a mechanical rebuild on a motor, rebuilt carb, changed fuel lines, etc… then pumped the fuel system up with mix, and let it sit for six months with stabilizer in his shed. After winter, she Fired right up, it took that much of an experiment to change his mind set on it.

    I think this type of discussion will never be solved, same as the great oil debate. I think if you find a system that works for you, go with it, and keep on boating.
