Foam in fuel tank?

[509freerider]

If you de-foam don't you need to re foam to keep the fuel from sloshing around?

so do i fill the entire tank with foam? it seems like the more foam, the less sloshing

Im wondering if I ever get water in the foam under my tray, if I put fuel tank foam in it will that keep the water from sloshing around under my tray?

I would only fill the top half of the tank with foam, cause I don't have a sloshing problem till I get to a half a tank

so if i want my foam to not slosh,i should add fuel then?

so what if i already filled my tank with foam, could i cut it open and defoam the bottom half

Why don't they just make motors that run on foam . That 's a stupid idea....... what would add to keep the foam from sloshing around. This whole thread is stupid ...... Come to think of it ...... sloshing means to agitate a liquid. Just be nice to your fuel so it does not become agitated .

If you used super jet foam I would, you probably already have water in it use walmart spray in foam. When you cut it and de foam the bottom, you can re seal the tank with butyl tape. No one wants sloshing fuel foam!

You could add foam to keep the foam from sloshin around?

Wouldn't angry fuel make the ski faster?

i always criticize my fuel before pouring it in the ski, it seems to be faster

I ran Sea Foam for a few tanks and don't think it helped either. I like the 2 part foam idea. It resists gas according to UScomposties.

Seafoam only works in the ocean, if you are a flat water rider you need fuel tank foam to keep the fuel from sloshing around.

You can add footholds.... but then it's kind of a pain in the a$$ to turf your tank. Don't forget the 25mm padding if you will be riding in surf....

If you defoam the fuel, don't you risk having your fuel sink to a watery grave????

Depends on who built it.

Perhaps one of the funniest threads ever.

But noone has answered the question and now I'm curious... What is the foam for?
