I let the Seafoam sit in the cylinders overnight and then cranked the engine (no spark plugs) four or five times to get things moving. I bought another 16 oz. can of Seafoam today and put more of the stuff into the cylinders. I'll let it sit overnight again before trying to fire the engine up tomorrow. I really hope this works.
