transom soot- cleaning
 

Whats the best cleaner to use to get rid of transom soot?:D

Elbow Grease and quit running Premium!! If all else fail's,, I use Acetone!!-{spell Check}

stop running premium??
Does Premium gas actually give more Soot??

I would think it would burn cleaner :(

Maybe that is why mine is so dirty, because all I run is 90+

Try Simple Green, the stuff works GREAT on transom soot!!!

Lowest octane you can run without pinging and Simple Green. Also, assuming you have an EFI, as the season warms up a bit, your soot will decrease.

!Black streak remover! Starbrite. Works great

If you keep the transom waxed, it helpes too.

Premium will make the computer / engine run rich which increase soot.

Keeping the transom waxed definitely makes clean up much easier. For the really tough soot go to West Marine and get a bottle of Black Streak Remover that Ray mentioned. ;)

After you remove the "soot". I highly recommend that you apply Frenzy. This will aid in removal the next time around. You will literally just have to wipe it off. I have seen this with some of my race clients.

formula 505 from home depot, works great
