Question Seafoam-Sled gas tank

I am going to add seafoam to my gas tank. It says it treats 8-15 gallons of gas. My fuel tank is 10.7 gallons. It says on average it treats 1 oz per gallon. which would be almost 11oz's. The can is 16 oz's. is it ok to use whole can?

I added 3/4 can of seafoam and some extra 2 cycle oil in my 98 rmk 700 with 11 gal gas tank after engine and oil pump work and it ran like crap (fouled plugs)until it was diluted down with straight 91 octane gas, I would probably go with a lighter dose next time if at all, that has been my experience.

Well how much oil did you add to the gas? I can't see seafoam fouling spark plugs.

I added about 1 pt of oil and the seafoam,and had to change out the plugs at least 4 times in a 60 mile ride, I dont know if it was the seafoam or extra oil or combination, all I know is I had to pull on that cord more then should have, its always easier to add ounces of seafoam then gallons of gas.
